The Counselor's Corner

Our character education word for the week is self-reliance.  Self-reliance means to trust in ones own efforts and abilities.

According to our Changing Lives Character Education Program, self-reliance in school means:
1.  I will try and try until I succeed.
2.  I will do the task assigned to me on time.
3.  I will not depend on others for what I can do myself.
4.  I will not leave for tomorrow things I can do today.

Books to read on Self-Reliance:

Hooray for You!All by MyselfI Knew You Could!: A Book for All the Stops in Your Life

Career in Focus: Conservator
Conservators preserve history and culture by restoring antique books, artwork, and other important artifacts.
Quotable Quote:

“Self-reliance is the only road to true freedom, and being one's own person is its ultimate reward”  Patricia Sampson
