Write 2 paragraphs. Each one must be at least 150 words.

The first should be about 2-3 Pillars you struggle with . . . in other words, your weakest Pillars. Give specific examples in recent weeks of things you did that violate the pillar. For example, don't just say you were disrespectful to a teacher-- fully describe the incident and what you did or said. Include a strategy to improve those behaviors. Saying you will try not to talk back is not strategy. What mechanism will you create to not talk back is the strategy.

The second should be about your strongest 2 or 3 Pillars. For this paragraph, describe specific things in recent weeks that highlight your strengths and finish with why you believe those are pillars that are easier for you to follow.

Email Mr. Arlea when finished to let him know and he will visit your Naviance Journal.
