A grade does not define the worth of a person.


There are only 2 real types of failure

1. Not tryin

2. Quitting

"Either one will not provide an opportunity to learn or succeed."

Tracy Taylor 1990

If you don't like an outcome or the results of your actions and effort, ask yourself:

"What did I not do that I should have done?

What did I do that I should not have done?

With your new knowledge, go try again and you should always do better.

Tracy Taylor 1990


Students come to school not because of what they already know,

but because of what they don't know and need to learn.

Tracy Taylor 1988

Students in the classroom today,

are the adults of tomorrow.

Students are the Nation's most valuable natural resource.

They are the FUTURE!

Tracy Taylor 1988

Children are the creator of tomorrow and the keepers of yesterday. Today is a gift, which is why it is called the present. Each day is precious and we must make the most out of it. The more we are actively involved in positive ways, the greater the impact we can have.

Tracy Taylor 1988

Students are the most important people in a classroom or on campus. Without them, there is no need for teachers or anyone involved with they'er learning at a school.
