The World According to Applewhite

 

There are no secrets to success.  It is the result of preparation, hard work and learning from failure.  -Colin Powell

The big secret in life is that there is no big secret.  Whatever your goal, you can get there if you're willing to work.   -Oprah Winfrey

  

All about me:

Melissa Ann Applewhite  

  • ISS Coordinator 
    7 years at WISD - 5 years as ISS Coordinator 
    Certified in CT/RT by Glasser Institute

  • ISS Philosophy
    The purpose of ISS is to give students the opportunity to evaluate their behavior, realize the need for change,  make a plan for change, and begin to act upon that plan.  The goal of ISS is to empower students to take responsibility for their actions within an environment of respect.  All relationships are built upon a standard of respect and are modeled by the teacher to student, student to teacher, and student to student encounters within the classroom.  RESPECT is spoken here.

  • Life Philosophy
    Respect for Myself
    Respect for Others
    Responsibility for all my Actions
    I choose all my behavior and I am in control of the choices I make.   I choose how the world sees me and each day I paint a self portrait of who I am with paints tinted by the behaviors I choose to employ.  If I want something to be different it is up to me to make the change.
