"Do Your Best and Never Give Up"
I have been attending Clairbourn for 10 years. I will be…moving on to high school at Maranatha. I will never forget what Clairbourn has done for me and the memories that I have made. I remember on my first day of school I was really nervous about coming to Clairbourn, but I overcame that nervousness and made good friends and memories here since that day. It was very easy to fit in and adjust to my new community.
Clairbourn has taught me to be responsible, hard-working, and to try my best in everything I do, even if I may not enjoy the subject, activity, or assignment. Clairbourn taught me many life lessons and skills, and has built me up and prepared me for not only high school, but for life. Clairbourn has also supported me in everything I did and helped me strengthen my skills. My advice to upcoming students would be to work hard, never give up, and always try your best. Even if I make a mistake on an assignment, I always learn from my mistakes and I encourage all upcoming students to do so as well in their assignments, because learning from your mistakes builds you up and helps you grow.

I would like to end with this quote, “A successful person isn’t someone who never fails, it’s someone who doesn’t give up when they fail,” -author unknown. This means to me that nobody is perfect and everyone fails, makes errors, but you can’t give up if you want to be successful in life, and that’s a part of success. Thank you Clairbourn for always encouraging me to keep trying!
