Citizenship Pledge

Think about the following when writing up your Student of the Month nomination.

Taunting, stereotyping, promoting rumors, engaging in ridicule, and other negative behaviors are harmful and wrong and can lead to more damaging kinds of activities. I reject all such behaviors.

I will accept and appreciate the diversity around me.

I will appreciate and be respectful of the facility and its staff.

I understand that being a bystander when hateful or dangerous things occur means I am part of the problem. I will, instead, do what I can to be part of the solution.

I understand the power I have as an individual to affect positive change, and that using that power puts me in the company of history’s most respected and honored people.

I recognize that I am responsible for my own behavior, and will be decent and considerate in my dealings with others.

Student of the Month - May Nomination
