Prove It

September 16, 2009

Being a student at Novi High School means a great deal to all of us and we should be proud of our school. You are getting an education from one of the best schools in the state, along with tons of opportunities to explore who you want to be. Along with all of this though, is the chance to prove to yourself, your parents, and most of all your school that you are responsible and capable of handling even more freedoms.

What I’m saying is, responsibility can go along way, but ever since we became students in any one of the Novi schools we were taught how to be responsible, and now is your chance to actually prove it.

So, next time you go out with your friends and they want you to do something that goes against what you think and know is right, show your pride in who you are and say no. You as an individual need to take control of situations that you are put into, and prove that you are someone you want to be and not who others want you to be.

Doing these things can prove, not only to yourself, but to the school in which you attend, and to your parents, how you can be independent and trustworthy. This proves to your parents and teachers that you took the information that they gave you and put it to good use.

If you get one thing from this quick note, it should be that this time in high school is the best time to prove to everyone around you that you are who you want to be and you know how to do things right. Also let's look for others doing things right and compliment them for there efforts.

Prove that you can be responsible, trustworthy, and independent, and go out there and do things that you want to do, not what others want you to do. Don’t do the things that you think will make you cool when they really will only get you in trouble, and cause you to lose some of the responsibility and freedoms you have earned so far.

Especially with homecoming right around the corner this is a great chance to prove it!
