money talks - to get parents and kids to attend this meeting, gift cards were given out to lucky students, parents, even the teacher with the most students there.
no slackers - New state requirements - all diplomas will be college-prep.
directing traffic - Everyone has a Graduation Coach to steer you in the right direction - (we used to call them guidance counselors).
driving force - 10 unexcused absences = no drivers licence.
just do it (or don't) - advice from me - someone who has been there, done that:
do be yourself
do your homework
do play sports
don’t stress out
don’t be late
don’t give in
don’t forget to have fun
High school can be so rough
Can be so mean
Hold onto, onto your innocence
Stand your ground
When everybody's givin' in
This one's for the girls
Who've ever had a broken heart
Who've wished upon a shooting star
You're beautiful the way you are
This one's for the girls
Who loved without holdin back
Who dreamed with everything they had
All around the world
lyrics This Ones for the Girls ~Martina McBride, singer / Aimee Mayo songwriter
