Debutante LaShonna Foster Congratulations and Best Wishes

Work Hard: Hard work is the best investment a person can make. Study Hard: Knowledge enables a person to work more intelligently

and efficiently. Have the Spirit of Conquest: Thus you can successfully battle and

overcome difficulties. In All Things do Your Best: The person who has done their best has

done everything. The person who has done less than their best has done nothing.
