@egfsouthpoint Thank you Fifth Grade Ambassadors for the wonderful way to display our gratitude at South Point. The tree is filled with thankful notes written by students and teachers in all of the grades at South Point.

@girlsegfsoccer I know those faces! You have some terrific kids on that team Coach!

@jetufte Plus, you don't need a pat on the back every time you do some good in the world. The act of helping someone is its own reward. If it isn't, we need to adjust our value system. We've become a society of self-promotion.

@AArroyo_3 It is too bad you didn’t get that opportunity. My grandparents did not teach my mother Norwegian either. To this day, she wishes they had and in turn, so do I.

Be careful not to focus too much on your weaknesses. It is your strengths that will allow you to be exponentially more successful. And those without your best interest will almost exclusively try to keep you focused on your weaknesses.

@MavFanatic @MSHSLjohn @WellsFargo @Toyota Actually, legend has it that the name came from the green wheat fields moving in the Red River Valley winds in early summer. It's more specific to our region than you would think. When they chose the nickname generations ago, most people wouldn't have known Tulane's nickname.
