Student Success Statement

"Act well your part; there all honor lies."

Alexander Pope

I think this quote means that if you act good you will get a reward. For example three day ago i forgot my iPod on the chair i was sitting on at school and then i moved classroom, and thirty minutes later a friend of mine went to my class and said hey i found your iPod here it is, and she gave it to me. I think that was a good action from her and i believe life and god will reward her. For her kindness i also want to do something for her, so now she can count on me for whatever she needs. This proves that if you act well you will get a reward.

I would like to be an orthodontist because I think it is a great and fun job. I like the equipment they work with.

"I would prefer even to fail with honor 

than win by cheating"

Sophocles

I think this quote means that it is better to fail by choosing the right, than winning without our own merits. For example if you are on a marathon and there is a chance to cut without anyone noticing do not do it because if you do you won't feel like a winner, you will feel ashamed, so do what is right even if you are not getting something material because the best reward is peace. Do what is right without looking at the reward because by choosing the right you will never get something bad out of it.

Oral Care Professional clean teeth, examine patients for signs of oral diseases such as gingivitis, and provide other preventative dental care. They also educate patients on ways to improve and maintain good oral health.

In most states, a degree from an accredited dental hygiene program and good grades on written and practical examinations are required for licensure.

I would like to be an oral care professional because I think it is a great job and i like everything that happens to be similar to dentist. The salary is really high and the responsibilities are not too many. I think it is a great
job and i would definitely work in this environment. I like everything about this job. The requirements are a little bit too many but they are not hard.
