BALANCE – Live your best life
Be mindful of self and others while focusing on what’s meaningful and important in your life.
3rd: Currey Morales- Currey’s balance is a defining factor of who he is and why he’s so fantastic. He has school, family, soccer and football, fishing, and more in his life. He finds balance by prioritizing, then dedicating his full energy to everything he does. I have watched Currey grow so much, all because he wants to. He wants to do well academically and has an internal drive that pushes him to succeed, so when he’s in class he is focused, listening and learning. Then, when it’s time for recess he plays just as hard as he works in class. He is out on the field giving everything he has to the game. When it’s family time, Currey is fully invested, enjoying each moment he has with his family. Then he goes fishing. Then he comes back to school in the morning and does it all over again. Each day he balances his interests, making sure he’s getting them all in and making the most of them by working hard at each one. His incredible ability to do this is why he perfectly represents the key of Balance.
