The University of La Verne’s core values have been present in my life throughout the years. Even though my mother wanted to attend college as I did, she didn’t have the option to so and that’s why she encourages me to try my hardest in school. When my mother was young, she dreamed of attending college in the United States and getting a job so she could support her family, whereas when I was small, I didn’t think school was important. Although my mother only attended elementary school, school was one of her top priorities because she felt like it was an honor to go to school, and if you went to school, you were considered to be lucky.

In one occasion I was given some information - by a parent who was picking up their child early, who I was waiting with and there to greet the parent – about who would be collecting their child from school the next few days, which I was asked to give to the class teacher, I did this straight after so that the teacher had the important information. I think a way in which to come across professional to parents as a student, when an enquiry was made to me which I couldn’t answer, was to explain that although I wasn’t aware of that information I could refer them to which member of staff was aware straight away, this meant I was helping to the point that I could which resulted in the parents enquiry being answered by the appropriate member of staff, instead of just responding to the parent that I couldn’t answer but not helping them out by referring them to who

Joe Thompson II February 2013 “Do not give away what so many have worked so hard for.” In their lives when most of them grew up they all had just one dream, to one day be successful and raise a family.

Letting the mother stay home and raise the children and teach them morals and values carried on one generation after the next.
