https://padlet.com/Mrs_Sample/the_extra_mile_2024 Students at WCHS who wish to learn more about going above and beyond will share their weekly ideas on this page. en-us 2023-06-26 04:21:00 UTC 2023-08-20 20:28:18 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f929.png Mrs_Sample https://padlet.com/Mrs_Sample/the_extra_mile_2024/wish/2632165876 While this sounds cliche, it really is something that sets certain individuals apart from their peers or colleagues.  These things include respect, integrity, leadership, service, character, among others.  These are not equivalent to intelligence, nor are they defined by any factor other than the dedication to self by any one person.  It is something that only YOU can determine.

But make no mistake, the cliche is true... you get out of life exactly what you are willing to put in to it.  

If you are a student looking to be a cut above the rest, this is the space for you!  We will work together voluntarily to discuss our ideas on what it means to be our best selves.  We are not pretending to be perfect or even have it all together.  In fact, quite the opposite!  We are admitting that we are human, but that we want to realize our full potential.

I am eager to learn with you through this journey! ]]> 2023-06-26 04:33:58 UTC https://padlet.com/Mrs_Sample/the_extra_mile_2024/wish/2632165876 Mrs_Sample https://padlet.com/Mrs_Sample/the_extra_mile_2024/wish/2632168375 This page is monitored and moderated by Mrs. Sample and other teachers who want to participate in this activity.

Why do you think high school students feel this way? What might it take to change the culture to include highly successful students in the "cool" category?]]> 2023-06-26 04:38:08 UTC https://padlet.com/Mrs_Sample/the_extra_mile_2024/wish/2632169956
