WELCOME TO PADRe Pio C
Mrs. Varela & Mrs. Garcia
As we embark in this New Year, we must prepare to make it an
exciting one full of opportunities and memories for our children.
We can not achieve this unless we work together.
Therefore, let us continue to motivate and encourage
our children to always do their best.

BELIEVE
Do not be afraid to shine.
This world needs what you have to give.
Open up the areas of your being;
expose them to yourself - to others.
You are valuable.
You are unique.
You have much to give.
Do not be afraid to give it.
As we risk ourselves, we grow.
Each new experience is a risk:
we can try, and maybe fail,
and as a result, grow -
or hold back and stagnate.
You have the potential
to be anything you want to be!
You are free to choose.
You are limited only by your fears.
Let your dreams take over,
fly with the eagles,
soar into life,
the world is waiting for you!

A Creed to Live By
Don't undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others.
It is because we are different that each of us is special.
Don't set your goals by what other people deem important.
Only you know what is best for you.
Don't take for granted the things closest to your heart.
Cling to them as you would your life, for without them life is meaningless.
Don't let life slip through your fingers, by living in the past or for the future.
By living your life one day at a time, you live all the days of your life.
Don't give up when you still have something to give.
Nothing is really over... until the moment you stop trying.
Don't be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect.
It is a fragile thread that binds us to each other.
Don't be afraid to encounter risks.
It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.
Don't shut love out of your life by saying it's impossible to find.
The quickest way to receive love is to give love;
the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly;
and the best way to keep love is to give it wings.
Don't dismiss your dreams.
To be without dreams is to be without hope;
to be without hope is to be without purpose.
Don't run through life so fast that you forget where you've been, but also where you're going.
Life is not a race, but a journey to be savored each step of the way.

"God grant us the serenity to accept the things we cannot change;
the courage to change the things we can;
and the wisdom to know the difference"
