Southport High School Core Beliefs
Sense of Community:
I CAN ACTIVELY GIVE MY BEST FOR THE SOUTHPORT COMMUNITY.
I think one of the most important parts to focus on in this statement is “give my best.” Students get disappointed if they don’t get the best grade on the test, or end up ranked number two in their class. Instead of focusing on giving their best attitude and effort to each situation, and being pleased with the final outcomes, they only focus on being the best and struggle with the outcome if they are not. Sometimes, even when you give everything you have to a task, you still do not end of up on top. We lose, we fall short, we miss the mark… we need to remember, that even in misses or missed opportunities, the lessons that are learned are exactly what we needed to be taught at the time. Our best, sets us up for the next success and the successes after that. The best is an end goal that once you reach, if ever, leaves you looking for something else to chase. Giving your best day in and day out can take you to places you never thought you would reach. What a place it would be if we all gave “my best” effort everyday to the Southport community.
