"i wasn't trying to leave a legacy. I was trying to do what was right". - Dean Smith


This quote means that it wasn't his intention to leave. He knew that these basketball players knew enough  & he didn't think they needed him. Always do whats right for yourself. Just because other people decided to do the wrong things doesn't mean you should follow. If you want something in life you have to succeed for it , reach you goal without anyone bringing you down. Just because others dont succeed doesn't mean you cant.  Always be aware of those who are around you , for example if someone decided to ditch school with their friends. Dont follow their footsteps because you'll have to deal with bad consequences. Always do whats best for yourself. Keep in mind no one ever stays at the end.

Educating the body, Mind, and character - Theodore Roosevelt 

"Of all the work that is done or that can be done for our country, the greatest is that of educating the BODY, the MIND, and above all the CHARACTER, giving spiritual and more training to those who in a few years are themselves to decide the destinies of the nation" 


This quote means that you should embrace who you are & speak up for yourself. Of all things in this world it is best to educate the body, mind, and most important the mind. So that in the future these people can speak up & choose the right things for all of the people. We need to take good care of our nation, community together. If we want to keep this nation they way its supposed to we have to work together and help each other out.

Body - Mind - Spirit

"Take responsibility for YOUR OWN body, mind, and spirit, for your own physical, mental, and spiritual well-being." C.S Haymore


This quote means that you should have responsibility over yourself. You can take control in anything , you're the one who takes the risk & chances. No other person can tell you what to do or whats right from wrong. If you worry about yourself you wouldn't be stressing over any one else. Don't let anyone else take control of your body , mind or spirit because you are you're own person. People need to start worrying about themselves instead of putting other people in front of them. Once that happens that person doesn't care about themselves & it leads them to bad choices. People need to be their own leader instead of following other peoples steps and trying to be like them.  No other person should tell you what to do. Always remember you have a responsibility of your own.

                  Lausd student services

some students  may need help with their graduation requirements like the A-G requirements. All the tools & resources they have for the students is helpful in many ways if they ever come across something like that. Like the bullying information, pupil services, and what also helped was the college & career information. They can also help you find scholarship information. This site also gives enough information for the students to follow. 

i think this is a good site for  many kids because it can help them in many ways. It has a homework help center where they can ask questions if they dont understand. This would be a good site to those kids who need help in many ways. 

"Intelligence is not enough. Intelligence plus character, that is the goal of true education" _ Martin Luther King Jr.

"We need courage to start and continue what we should do, and the courage to stop what we shouldn't do" 

Richard L. Evans 

This quote means that we need to start doing the right things. We need some courage inside of us to do the right things , instead of breaking rules here and there. When we do the wrong things sooner or later we are going to feel bad. Kids nowadays do anything to impress their friends , but little do they know those kids they are trying to impress really don't care about anyone but themselves. Some kids need to have courage inside of them and speak up to those people who just pressure them to do stuff.

Many kids need to think twice about doing anything they know is wrong. For example is one of your friend ask you to ditch school , you'll probably think oh yeah it'll be fun and all but soon you'll have to deal with the consequences. Adults want to see their child be a better person than them , they want them  to be successful.   We need to start doing the right things instead of the bad. Always think twice before you do something , and always choose the right.

"When you tell one lie , it leads to another one"

This quote means that once you tell one lie its going to lead to another one. For example if you tell one lie , youll need to cover that lie up until you run out and you get caught up. There is many times that teenagers tell a lie and they get caught up. Once you get caught lying you're parents will no longer have trust in you. Even if youre friends cover up for you one day or another the truth will spill out. It is always best to tell the truth and never get caught in your lies. Its never best to lie to youre parents or any one that is close to you because one way or another the truth will spill out.
