My School Promise

Each day I'll do my best

And I won't do any less.

My work will always please me,

And I won't accept a mess.

I'll color very carefully,

My writing will be neat.

And I will not be happy,

Till my papers are complete.

I'll always do my homework,

And try my best on every test.

I won't forget my promise,

To do my very best!

 

Additionally, just below here you will see some links and other resources you might find useful.

It is also important to note that all work you complete on this page and on your personal blog must adhere to the Morisset High School's acceptable use policy for computer use.
 

"Successful Learning - Responsible Living" is our stated purpose.
