GO FOR YOUR DREAM COLLEGE
Hello Friends,
Recently I have had more than a few students alter their college dreams because someone indicated during a conversation about college choices, that their dream college wasn't within their grasp.
Horrendous. What makes it even more of an offense is the students all could, if they tried, place their dream college within their sphere of possibilities.
Life is a matter of creating possibilities and that is exactly what my role is with students, creating possibilities.
However, lately it has been made more challenging by discouraging words from adults, adults who should know that students will live up to expectations.
I have high expectations for my students and when they spend enough time with me to begin to believe and see what I see in them, dream colleges become a reality.
Please parents and other adults, encourage, set the bar high. Of course, all of this takes hard work,a clear strategy for achievement and displaying the students strengths clearly, yes, marketing the students, but as a team we can make a dream a reality.
It is our responsibility.
