Using Your Manners

   In the morning, everyone walks to school, arrives on a bus, or is driven to school by their parents. When we exit our vehicles, the PE coaches help us get out and tell us, "Good Morning." Many people just walk right by. Its not only rude, but it could be hurtful. Its like when you tell someone, "Hi" and they just walk away!

Here's what you can do. Every time someone helps you out, go ahead and thank them. Every time someone says good morning, reply. Every time someone asks how you're doing, ask them how they're doing. These small acts of kindness can really light up someone's day. Marcus and I have been using our manners ever since we realized this issue, and everyone who we talked to ended up with a smile.
