Mr. Mark Blakemore came in this morning and gave one final talk to our group. Mark does an amazing job in delivering his discussions on personal development. Today, he challenged our kids to develop their personal philosophies, to become students of their lives, and to discipline themselves. He stressed the importance of developing skills, developing good habits, and making the most out of opportunities in life. Mark also emphasized the importance of making use of the “times” we have and daily steps to help hold ourselves accountable. Thank you so much Mr. Blakemore for coming back to town to finish your message. Thank you for the parting gifts and morning snacks as well. Congratulations and best wishes with your recent retirement!
