I wouldn’t enjoy myself being a Licensed Practical Nurse. I know I won’t. The reason why I think this way is because the whole thing doesn’t seem interesting. You get to help people, that’s big but that’s not me.

Student Success Statement

Student Success Statement

“Righteous community unity starts with one upright soul, whether it is a community of family members, students, neighbors, teammates, or business associates. Unity conquers worthy pursuits more quickly and with less effort than individual effort alone.”

-Mr. Haymore

Reflection: This statement means is it only requires one person to conquer worthy pursuits. Less effort than individual effort along. It can start with anyone, can go along with anyone. Either if it’s a student, family members, neighbors it can do with anyone. Even a homeless man I start one. Quite inconceivable that one person can start a big rumble.
