School Homecoming

Homecoming is a tradition of welcoming back former students and celebrating a school’s existence. It is a tradition in many high-schools and colleges. Homecoming had its birthplace in Missouri at the university. The university has a rivalry with Kansas University. They decided to lighten up the rivalry with celebration and parades in which alumni were invited to “come home” to Mizzou. This is homecoming began and stayed.  We celebrate homecoming because former student or even students that already graduated high school come back to homecoming to celebrate, see their old friends, and remember the memories. Something related to homecoming is probably prom. A football game usually occurs a day before the homecoming dance which is why it is called the homecoming game. Some school homecomings involve flowers, dress, bill. I think homecoming is a nice way to welcome alumni to their school and have a great time with their friends.

Student Success Statement

A Good Name

"A good name is better than anything you can achieve in this life.'' This was a quote stated by Mike Krzyzewski. Better known as coach k. He said this when someone asked what is better than winning 1000 games. I agree with coach k. I agree because 1000 no matter how many games won, it wont feel as good as the name you have for yourself.

''A Good name if rather to be chosen than great riches."

What does this statement mean? It means that you need to choose a good/ better name for yourself. You need to choose a name for your actions. For instance if you are a disobedient name you shouldn't have a great name for yourself. If you're obedient and respectful you should have a good name. Find a name that goes with your personality.

Student Success Statement

Noemi Trigueros once said "A CTR champion is a person who makes a great human out of himself." I agree with this formal student. Noemi Trigueros is makes a good statement because a person who did bad wouldn't succeed as much or at all like a CTR person. A CTR person would go above and beyond at the standards that need to be accomplished. For instance if you ever choose to do a bad thing like cheat on a test you're not a champion in any way even if you got a good grade. On the other hand if you were the person who studied and got a good grade that is a true champion. A true champion is a person who does the right thing all the time. A true champion is a CTR person. There are many examples to fit into this quote. I agree with Noemi Trigueros with the statement "A CTR champion is a person who makes a great human out of himself."
