1 COMMUNICATIONS FROM GREENFIELD- CENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL --Wednesday, September 12 TH CHARACTER QUALITY FOR SEPTEMBER IS RESPONSIBILITY -- The Fourth I will statement is I will make things right when I do wrong. We all make mistakes. When we do, they can sometimes be corrected or made better if we make amends. For example, if you bump into someone, you can make it better by saying excuse me. Or if you give someone the wrong information and then find that out, you can go back to that person and tell them you made a mistake and then give them the correct information. Saying I m sorry is always a good thing to do when you do something wrong. STUDENT ALERT: YOU ARE TO USE YOUR CELL PHONE ONLY DURING YOUR LUNCH PERIOD. THIS MEANS IN THE CAFETERIA ONLY.
