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

Reflection:When he decided to choose the right nothing but success followed him. Dean Smith was a basketball coach who emphasized the importance of teaching his players good character. It was not important to him whether to win or lose, because they were still winners at heart. The only thing that Dean Smith did stress was teamwork. Dean had written a letter to all on his players atleast once a year. It was either on Christmas, Birthdays, Weddings, or Special Occasions. This shows how kind of a man he was, and never has he forgot to write to any one of them, not even once.

Dean Smith chose the right throughout his life in many ways.First of all he chose the right by transforming his basketball players into men who had potential. He touched the lives of every single one of them.By doing this he also showed them the importance of playing basketball was not to win, but to try their best by working together. Dean Smith was a great man and has affected his players dearly. Dean Smith did not ask for appreciation, but those who knew him, knew that he deserved it.Dean Smith was awarded many times, but the true meaning behind all his awards is that he chose the right 24/7.

Example: An example of this could be that Dean was so humble, he didn't feel that he deserves the stadium that was built in his honor.

Doing what is right, fair, and honorable

"Doing what is right, fair, and honorable is more important than winning or losing."- Chick Moorman

An example of this would be if 2 people were playing cards, and one person cheats by taking a card from the deck and wins. The person who won the game lost all integrity, but on the other hand the loser of this game is still a winner because they did the right thing, so the person who truly loses is the one that cheats.

This quote means that it doesn't matter who wins at anything. but how you play fair and take responsibility. If you choose the wrong then that wouldn't be fair, and if you choose the right you will be a good sport and be the winner in the end.This quote can also be interpreted as a win is nothing without playing with integrity. If a person decides to CTW, and cheat then they really didn't accomplish anything at all.Even if you are losing at something you shouldn't CTW, you should just try harder and wish for best luck.Having integrity is more than having moral principles, it is also staying true to the person you are.If you do the right thing in a reliable way, you will always have integrity with you wherever you go.Integrity also means having wholeness in a character, so it reveals your true intentions. Having integrity also means to CTR 24/7.

8.Write a reflection of at least eight sentences expressing your feelings toward Veterans Day.
I would like to say thank you to all our Veterans past present and future. I believe we should thank you every day of the year not just on certain days.To me, Veterans Day means; Honor, Respect, and the price we pay or have paid to keep our country free. Those who serve have great respect for our country or they would have never volunteered to protect those who have been left behind.Many veterans sacrifice for our freedom.We should  always remember our Veterans and the people who have serves our country.In a way, Veterans can be seen as our "parents" of the country.For instance, most parents would risk their life for their children, in likewise manner that our veterans are willing to sacrifice their lives for us.
