Say Cheese! It's Picture Time! - Updated

UPDATE (2/03/2011):  If you're wondering where the pictures are, they are on there way soon.  The photographer has had some troubles with her photo lab as it recently closed without notice.  She has found a new photo lab and will get the pictures to us as soon as she can. 

Pictures will be taken on Monday, December 20, 2010 in the K-2 cafeteria at 6 pm.  You can print the order form from here.

A Winning Attitude Comes From Giving 100%

“I’m a big believer in starting with high standards and raising them. We make progress only when we push ourselves to the highest level. If we don’t progress, we backslide into bad habits, laziness and poor attitude." ~ Dan Gable

Our slogan and goal this year is: "A Winning Attitude Comes From Giving 100%"  Here's a little fun you can have with numbers...

Take a piece of paper, right now, and write out the word "ATTITUDE."  Now assign each letter the number that letter corresponds to and add those numbers up.  Guess what, they add up to 100%.  A=1, T=20, T=20, I=9, T=20, U=21, D=4, E=5 = 100%.   Attitude is everything!

We're a few weeks into the 2010 season and from my observation we have a great group of kids with great personalities and attitudes.  While wrestling is an individual sport, this year's wrestlers understand that it takes the team to elevate and push the individual wrestler to success.  As long as we keep a winning attitude, continue to work, and to strive toward greatness we'll have a bright season - it's bound to happen.  

Share this quote with your wrestler and continue to emphasize the importance of attitude.  “Ability is what you're capable of doing.  Motivation determines what you do.  Attitude determines how well you do it.” ~ Lou Holtz
