" Be cool in school---live every rule." - Mr. Haymore 

What this quote means to me is that the real way or the best way way to be cool is to follow our live's rules. This means we must always try to choose the right, and do things that will benefit us, rather than harm us, or make us end up in places we don't want to be in. Always doing what is right, from what is wrong.

What is recreation? What is the best recreation?

"The best recreation is to do good." - William Penn

What this quote means to me is that best kind of recreation is always going to be doing good.

Right is Right even if everyone is against it, Wrong is Wrong even if everyone is for it - William Penn 

What this quote means to me is that if everyone is willing to do or support things like drugs, sex, or alcohol, it doesn't mean you should do it as well, because we all have a sense of judgement of whether something is right or something is wrong. You might say no to drugs, no to any bad influence, and many might disagree with you, but that's their problem, not yours, you always choose what is right in this life, and you are guaranteed to live a happy and successful.

"A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches. - Proverbs 22:1

What this quote means to me is that who you known for being, or even better off who you are as a individual is worth more than any riches, gold, silver, etc. You can be a Billionaire, but if you, yourself, are known for being arrogant greedy and always wanting more possessions, this makes you undesirable by anybody, and basically a bad person.

Coach K's quote

 Student Success Statement:

 "A good name is better than anything you can achieve in this life."- Coach K ( Mike Krzyzewski ).

What this quote means to me is that having a good reputation amongst society is the best thing you can achieve in life. When I mean good reputation, it isn't being the most handsome, the most rich, or the most popular person, but it means being known for your character and your personality towards others that gives you a good name, for your hard work, intelligence, and obedience.

National Holiday- Columbus Day

Columbus Day

Explorer and navigator Christopher Columbus was born in 1451 in the Republic of Genoa, Italy. His first voyage into the Atlantic Ocean in 1476 nearly cost him his life. Columbus participated in several other expeditions to Africa. 1492, Columbus left Spain in the Santa Maria, with the Pinta and the Niña along side. He has been credited for opening up the Americas to European colonization. Ever since he discovered America, we have made a special holiday that gives most people day's off from work, school, etc, to acknowledge his discovery every October 13. Many states as well as Countries celebrate this holiday. However some do not including Hawaii, South Dakota, Alaska, etc, recognizing the genocide Columbus brought towards Native Americans, therefore, they replace this day with a day reserved for Native Americans.

Genocide against Native Americans

Columbus's discovery of the America's

 Reflection: Write your thoughts, feelings, and insights.- I feel that Christopher Columbus is an interesting person, due to his rich history as being ,"The Father of the America's". I feel that although he did discover America, I feel the genocide against Native Americans, is a big reason why at least here in California, we do not celebrate Columbus day.
