Sunday Acronymn - W.E.
Wait on no one or system! Make sure our households are in order with education being the priority! Many will say “college is not for everyone” and it may not be but let’s strive to meet the requirements and if we miss the mark then it’s not due to a lack of trying!
Expect more than average for our scholars! Set the bar high and help them see that life is more than just wearing the latest brand names or getting the most likes on social media! Make the expectations known now and remember they don’t have the wherewithal to see the bigger picture right now but as their parents, we do!
