n.
Steadfast adherence to a strict moral or ethical code.
The state of being unimpaired; soundness.

Integrity Every Day
How many of us live with true integrity every day?
Do your work to the fullest, never cheat in any way.
Stay to the path you made up your mind to tread,
Falling away from truth never entering your head.
However hard th way, if you have integrity in you,
You'll strive and never give in until you are through
You'll be honored and trusted by all those you meet,
Your word will be your bond, always fit to greet.
Will never give into temptation however strong,
Never on purpose would you ever do anything wrong,
No bribe would ever be large enough to lead you astray,
For integrity would always show you the right way.
Give me the strength to have integrity through my life,
That however hard the struggle, however much strife
I will stand strong and true, until my earthly life is through,
That I will be honorable and honest in all the things I do.

Your Honesty
"Honesty is the cornerstone of all success."Mary Kay Ash
Cornerstone: a stone representing the nominal starting place in the construction of a monumental building, usually carved with the date and laid with appropriate ceremonies.
Cornerstone: a stone representing the nominal starting place in the construction of a monumental building, usually carved with the date and laid with appropriate ceremonies.
I have been asked what I mean by word of honor. I will tell you. Place me behind prison walls—walls of stone ever so high, ever so thick, reaching ever so far into the ground—there is a possibility that in some way or another I may be able to escape, but stand me on that floor and draw a chalk line around me and have me give my word of honor never to cross it. Can I get out of that circle? No, never! I’d die first!

Your Habits
"We are what
we repeatedly do"
Aristotle
Your habits can make you or break you. What you repeatedly do becomes habitual, and your habits can take you to the top of the mountain in achievement or keep you at the bottom of the barrel. Raise the bar of your success-related habits and go to the summit of student achievement. It requires effort to hike to the top of a mountain, and being an Academic Champion is like hiking to the top of a mountain--both require extra effort. Work to the top and be proud of your good name. Your good habits will get you to the highest peak.

Your Good Name

Sergio Tovalin
Judge, "Choosing the wrong will shame your name."
Making a Name for Himself
When George Albert Smith was in his later years he had the following experience:
“I became so weak as to be scarcely able to move. It was a slow and exhausting effort for me even to turn over in bed.
“One day, under these conditions, I lost consciousness of my surroundings and thought I had passed to the Other Side. …
“… I saw a man coming towards me … and I hurried my steps to reach him, because I recognized him as my grandfather. … I remember how happy I was to see him coming. I had been given his name and had always been proud of it.
“When Grandfather came within a few feet of me, he stopped. His stopping was an invitation for me to stop. Then—and this I would like the … young people never to forget—he looked at me … and said:
“ ‘I would like to know what you have done with my name.’
“Everything I had ever done passed before me as though it were a flying picture on a screen—everything I had done. Quickly this vivid retrospect came down to the very time I was standing there. My whole life had passed before me. I smiled and looked at my grandfather and said:
“ ‘I have never done anything with your name of which you need be ashamed.’
“He stepped forward and took me in his arms, and as he did so, I became conscious again of my earthly surroundings. My pillow was as wet as though water had been poured on it—wet with tears of gratitude that I could answer unashamed” (George Albert Smith, Sharing the Gospel with Others, 1948, p. 111) (http://www.lds.org/ldsorg/v/index.jsp?vgnextoid=024644f8f206c010VgnVCM1000004d82620aRCRD&locale=0&sourceId=b5198ef0173fb010VgnVCM1000004d82620a____&hideNav=1)

Your Grades
"Excellent preparation precedes excellent grades."
Mr. Haymore
Students, when you are prepared, you will not fear; you will actually look forward to taking that quiz, test or exam because you know you will do well and enjoy the experience. But, if you are not prepared, you might even think of skipping school that day. You certainly won't look forward to that test period, and you will even be tempted to CTW and cheat. Don't put yourselves in this dilemma. Choose the Right by working hard to prepare, and you will enjoy yourself. When you are prepared, tests are easy. When you are not prepared, tests are hard, boring, difficult, distasteful, painful, and very unpleasant. Being prepared makes the experience delicious, and you will enjoy excellent grades; for excellent preparation precedes excellent grades. CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!
