You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today. – Abraham Lincoln
One of our core values is “Stand up and Own it.” We practice this by our actions; we model this with our students. We have a personal responsibility to build skill and to embrace a growth mindset.
As adults, we have a responsibility to prepare the next generation of American leaders through the quality of our public education system. Our parents, their parents, and their parents before them lived up to the responsibility to prepare us – today’s leaders – for success. Past generations worked and sacrificed so that we have the tremendous opportunities we have today. Now it’s our turn . . . it’s our time to “Stand up and Own it.”
There is no evading our responsibility today; that will only lead to failures in the future. We must step up and accept today’s challenges. We know that evading challenges today only delays the inevitable. We are proud to step up and make a difference today . . . it will lead to a brighter tomorrow.
