Each year, Graduation Rites, Commencement Exercises, Moving Up Ceremonies (whatever you may call them) bring profound joy not only to the students but most of all to the parents and guardians who are always working hard to provide for their children the best catholic education. St. John Bosco Academy has given to our beloved country and to the Universal Church graduates who have been formed and taught in a Christian way, who continue to bring honor to this Institution, and who are still standing tall in the society making St. John Bosco proud.

To you, dear students, it is always great to have someone to look up to. Being students of St. John Bosco Academy, I presume you have known our very own St. John Bosco like you know your best friend. …show more content…

In school,… it is far more honorable to fail than to cheat. Teach him to learn how to gracefully lose, and enjoy winning when he does win. Try to give my son the strength not to follow the crowd when everyone else is doing it. Teach him to listen to everyone, but teach him also to filter all that he hears on a screen of truth and take only the good that comes through. Teach him to sell his talents and brains to the highest bidder but never to put a price tag on his heart and soul.…. let him have the patient to be brave. Teach him to have sublime faith in himself, because then he will always have sublime faith in mankind, (and) in GOD.”
This story, I think is true to all parents who are here present and to all the parents in the world. You may not have written to you children’s teachers; however, I believe you share the same sentiment as President Lincoln. You all desire to see your children being taught the right Moral Values and Christian virtues which are invaluable riches and treasures compared to being wealthy and

No one would argue the ethics of parents teaching their children about their religion or political or moral values. The passing down of moral and religious convictions is universal regardless of race, religion (or lack thereof), nationality or creed. One might argue that it is a parent’s moral obligation to teach their children about religion, ethics and political values. Religiously fanatical parents believe they are ‘saving’ their children, but they are actually ‘ethically abusing’ them.

The idea of classroom causing problems for America’s society is elaborated when President Johnson explains that many children in America don’t have enough money to afford school. “There your children’s lives will be shaped. Our society will not be great until every young mind is set free to scan the farthest reaches of thought and imagination.” In order for a society to be great, education is the foundation; schools are where child learn about their world, and what it is they will do in the future to earn money to live a good life. And to better prove his idea Johnson states, “Each year more than 100,000 high school graduates, with proved ability, do not enter college because they cannot afford it,” then questions what will happen in years when time has become elapsed to conclude any efforts are needed to come into play for there to be a Great Society.

In life difficulties may arise, but an “instructive eye” of a “tender parent” is a push needed in everyone’s life. Abigail Adams believed, when she wrote a letter to her son, that difficulties are needed to succeed. She offers a motherly hand to her son to not repent his voyage to France and continue down the path he is going. She uses forms of rhetoric like pathos, metaphors, and allusions to give her son a much needed push in his quest to success.

My school would greatly benefit from the application of an honor code as long as such a code is approved by the student body. Such an honor code would bring about students to reconsider their actions before cheating on a test. This is because an honor code has the ability to create a culture among students which discourages cheating. Also, including harsh punishments within the honor code would dishearten students from cheating out of fear of potential consequences. Schools which have not benefited from honor codes are very different from Classical, and therefore do not prove that an honor code would be ineffective at Classical.

How can atheist children learn moral lessons that they may have been lacking? The article Atheist Activists Targeting Children With ‘Good Without God’ Campaign, by Heather Clark, provides a website that can teach just that.

As a student I believe that for one to have integrity they must show signs of righteous ethical morals.

The experiences people go through impact the way the see world and those around them. Children are raised by their parents and witnesses to the triumphs and failures. When the age comes many often question their parent’s decisions. Some may feel bitterness and contempt while others may feel admiration and motivation. The “Sign in My Father’s Hands” by Martin Espada conveys the feeling of being treated as a criminal for doing the right thing.

“We do not see that our children also make ethical decisions every day in their own lives. . .how attuned that may be to moral currents and issues in the larger society. ”(Cole,1980, p.438) Parents, desiring to preserve that innocence, tend to focus on the emotional aspect of a child’s life rather than the deeper intellectual aspect of it. Parents do not realize both aspects of a child’s life need attention. “Children need and long for words of moral advice, as much as they need words of affirmation or criticism from their parents. .
