Student Success Statement
"Intelligence is not enough. Intelligence plus character, that is the goal of true education."- Dr Martin Luther King Jr.

Reflection: Something that is important for achievement, along with intelligence, is character. This is because if you are a mean person, you're intelligence isn't enough for people to want to be around you. They would rather be with a person who is intelligent, but also has good character. For example, if you are hanging out with someone intelligent, and they are choosing the wrong then you should walk away immediately. Even though they are smart, it doesn't mean that they are a CTR person. You should hang out with someone who has a CTR character, and is also intelligent. You should ALWAYS be around intellectuals that have character. Another example of choosing the right, is having a CTR intelligent student help you with homework. This shows that they have good character and that being around them will better you. Whats even better than an intelligent individual, is an individual with a good, healthy mindset. The goal of true education, is to be smart, but also having a kind, honest faith that lies within you. Choose the right, and never go wrong !

Example. A bike need two inflated tires to travel. If one of them is flat they will not go very far.  One tire represents intelligence. The other represents character. If you are intelligent but have bad character, chances are your bike will come to a complete stop and stop you from reaching your destination.
