Quotes from Our Service Labs
At GOALS Academy, we believe in the development of service leadership in our scholars, as well as ourselves. With this in mind, members of our Service Labs in Grades 5 and 6 came up with a series of quotes to guide their lives.
God gives you a chance to live life. Some choose to be bold and others choose to not do anything with their life. If you are bold, keep loving life. If you can't find happiness, then find something you love.
Asia
Life is like a race car. It goes by so fast and you can't remember what you saw.
Athena
Feelings are feelings. But, when I see you the feelings that I feel are love, kindness, and strength between you and me.
Diane
Life is like pizza. You take it one slice at a time.
Ethan
When you say "try," that means you're not going to do it. Don't try your best. Do your best.
Gabriel
Your life is as fragile as placing a flower in a vase without water. Don't misplace your life.
Itzel
If you love life, then prepare for this wonderful and wild roller coaster!
Jack
Don't wear the mask of someone else. Be the inspiration of being yourself.
Jacob
Life is like Scooby Doo, Sherlock Holmes, or a Series of Unfortunate Events -- full of mystery.
Jordyn
Your open heart is like beautiful glass. Don't let anyone break it.
Kathryn
You only experience life once, so fill it with joy!
Kiara
You can be born with sight, but some still choose to act blind.
Madison
Don't be someone that another person wants you to be. Be the person you want to be.
Mia

DROP OFF & PICK UP PROCEDURESRemember, the drop-off and pick up zone for drivers is on the south side of the school, closest to La Palma Park. Cars should cue up on N. La Palma Park Way and Homer Street. Walkers are to enter through the password protected pedestrian gate on the north side of the school off of W. Carl Karcher Way.
For details, please see this flyer. The password for the pedestrian gate is periodically changed and is provided to our families via a separate flyer. Thank you for following these procedures and keeping our scholars safe! |
