As a student, it is extremely important that you are
successful throughout your years in school. Your grade school education
is the foundation for your success. It is my hope that you will strive to
achieve academic excellence while simultaneously striving to maximize your
potential in all of your classes, each and every year. If success is in
fact going to be your reality, I encourage you to make the 50 I’s below a part
of your regular routine. Each of the 50 I’s are reflective of who you
should be and what you should be doing daily as a student striving to achieve
academic excellence in school. I therefore encourage you to review and study
this list regularly, while ultimately making it a part of you. As you
study the 50 I’s, also be mindful that the key to success is maintaining an
attitude that is positive and to always make wise decisions along the
way. As long as you do, while simultaneous implementing the 50 I’s, I am
confident that the vision of academic excellence will be your permanent
reality.
