• Perfection is not
 attainable, but if we
 chase perfection we
 can catch excellence.”
 - Vince Lombardi
Tradition Never
  Graduates
      This is not about individuals.
    It’s bigger than any one person.
Every decision will be made in the best
       interest of the publication.
We will all work toward a common goal.
“When you find yourself in a position of strength, a
position of power or authority, you can go one way
or the other. You can be a person built for others,
which is all about effort and empathy. Or you can just
walk around like you’re better than everyone else,
which is basically arrogance and indifference about
the world around you.”
	   	   	   	   	   	   - Jeffrey Marx, Seasons of Life
Never Settle
We are great, but we
will continue to look
     to improve.
THE FIST

With these five points, all of a sudden you’re part of something bigger than yourself. That’s
what being a fist is all about. You throw yourself completely into the group--by communicating,
by trusting, by being collectively responsible, by caring, and by having pride. If you continue to
do that through the years, you will develop a tradition of excellence. And that is what we will
continue to build here at Kirkwood--a tradition of excellence.




                                    Point One: Communication
I’m going to tell you the truth if you’re doing something bad, if you’re doing something mediocre,
or if you’re doing something great.


                                        Point Two: Trust
When we tell each other the truth and talk to each other face-to-face, trust is going to develop.
It’s amazing. How many of you really trust someone? Some of you may not trust anybody.
But if you’re part of something that’s bigger than you, something that you identify with,
something you throw yourself into, then you will be more apt to be able to trust the people in
that room. And that’s what we’re trying to build. A staff where we trust one another; where we
have confidence in one another.


                           Point Three: Collective Responsibility
We succeed and we struggle together. It’s not the any one individual’s publication, it’s our
publication. A fist embraces plural pronouns.


                                     Point Four: Caring
We care for one another. If something happens, we’re there for each other, all the time.


                                            Point Five: Pride
If we do all these things over and over, we develop the pride of being in that fist--whether it’s a
staff fist, a church fist or a family fist. We’re proud to say, “I belong to the Kirkwood High
School journalism program.”

Give Back
 Our Little Haven
Extreme Makeover
Keep Kids Excited
       I. Freedom
       II. Respect
III. High expectations
I. Freedom
The program honors their First Amendment rights.

Students all want to be independent and in charge of their
own lives. Journalism gives them that opportunity. It’s
THEIR book. And that’s a GREAT thing.
II. Respect
Students, like adults, know when they are respected.

J students are treated with respect on a daily basis--as
individuals, as collaborators, as researchers, as writers.

Respect entails trust, and in your program students share the
responsibility for learning with the teacher. While the teacher
comes up with the curriculum, students implement it and
practice real-world skills.
III. High Expectations
My standards are high, and I find students, like adults, rise to
meet them. My students always have.

At whatever point your program is at, start this.

Empower your kids. Get excited and create something
beautiful.
The point is to remember
        to have fun along the way.

It’s about the journey, not the destination.
Start now, set the tone no matter where your
         program currently stands.

         Motivation is a TEAM effort.
   Work together and enjoy your year together.
Now go out there
  and take it!

This is YOUR TIME!

great 2012-13

  • 31. Give Back Our Little Haven Extreme Makeover
  • 32. Keep Kids Excited I. Freedom II. Respect III. High expectations
  • 33. I. Freedom The program honors their First Amendment rights. Students all want to be independent and in charge of their own lives. Journalism gives them that opportunity. It’s THEIR book. And that’s a GREAT thing.
  • 34. II. Respect Students, like adults, know when they are respected. J students are treated with respect on a daily basis--as individuals, as collaborators, as researchers, as writers. Respect entails trust, and in your program students share the responsibility for learning with the teacher. While the teacher comes up with the curriculum, students implement it and practice real-world skills.
  • 35. III. High Expectations My standards are high, and I find students, like adults, rise to meet them. My students always have. At whatever point your program is at, start this. Empower your kids. Get excited and create something beautiful.
  • 36. The point is to remember to have fun along the way. It’s about the journey, not the destination.
  • 37. Start now, set the tone no matter where your program currently stands. Motivation is a TEAM effort. Work together and enjoy your year together.
  • 38. Now go out there and take it! This is YOUR TIME!
