A Botched Assignment.

A favorite student botched an important assignment.

Around here, it’s okay to goof up.

It’s what happens NEXT that’s important.

Does the student accept responsibility — or make excuses?

Do they retreat in discouragement — or take another swing at it, with increased focus and energy?

Does the student understand that growth occurs during struggles like this — and embrace the experience?

Acing all of your challenges might feel good…but growth occurs when you fall — and get back up!
