SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT: 

 

Are we using God's name in a way that brings Him glory? 

 

"I am the Lord: that is My name!  My glory I will not give to another."    Isaiah 42:8 

"Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing...This should NOT be." James 3:10

Be careful little mouth what you say. Be careful little mouth what you say. For the father up above is looking down with love so be careful little mouth what you say.   :>)


 Reminders:

1.  HS - Don't forget your service hours!

2.  Harmony English - Remember your independent   reading assignments!

3.  English II - Independent AR Test deadline is September 1st!

 

IT'S GOING TO BE AN AWESOME YEAR AT JCS!

GOD IS SO GOOD!!! 


Quotes from Famous People with Learning Disabilities:

Thomas Edison:

  • “Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration.”
  • “Great ideas originate in the muscles.”
  • “I have not failed, I’ve just found 10,000 ways that don’t work.”
  • “Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.”

As a child, Thomas Edison... struggled with dyslexia... was poor at mathematics... had trouble with words and speaking

As an adult, Thomas Edison... patented over 1000 inventions... including the electric light bulb
