....I thought then for a moment...if the profile of our graduate is to have PERSEVERE, embody  COURAGE, ADVOCATE for themselves, CHOOSE wisely and be STRONG….  then we need to ask ….

Did you Parent provide your graduate the room...the space to PERSEVERE, have COURAGE, ADVOCATE, CHOOSE, and be STRONG???

Did you Teacher  provide your graduate the room...the space to PERSEVERE, have COURAGE, ADVOCATE, CHOOSE, and be STRONG???

Did you school administrator/ school district provide your graduate the room...the environment conducive  to PERSEVERE, have COURAGE, ADVOCATE, CHOOSE, and be STRONG???

 THEN I SAY CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU!!!
