***Here are a few words of wisdom:   

Marian Wright Edelman is the founder of the Children's Defense Fund.

She has worked very hard to help all children, regardless of their color,
race, or religion.
Ms. Edelman says:
      All children are [important] to America's future. we don't have a 
      child to waste. We will not be a strong country unless we invest 
      in every one of our children.
Sound like she's on your side, The truth is, there are people right here 
in our school who are on your side, who care about you and  want to see
you succeed, You have teachers who care, You have counselors who 
care. That's why they're here. They care.
You see, they understand the truth of what  Ms. Edelman is saying: YOU
are important to America's future. We can't afford to waste any of your
special talents and skills. Today, remember that we want you to be a 
happy and successful human being, because if you win the game of life,
we all win.

With something to think about, Make it a great day....or not. The choice is yours.
