The document discusses the "Law of the Seed" using the example of an apple tree producing many seeds despite only needing a few to grow more trees. It explains that nature teaches us that not all seeds will grow, just as in life most attempts or efforts will not succeed, so one must be persistent if they want something to happen. It encourages understanding this law rather than taking failures personally, and to keep planting seeds through continued effort. It also discusses having preferences rather than expectations, and maintaining a positive attitude about things outside one's control.

Three Strikes Policy
Youth Theatre at the U implements a ―Three Strikes You’re
Out‖ policy. All students are required to sign a General
Behavior Contract upon their acceptance to Youth Theatre at
the U.

If a student violates one of the terms of their contract, it is the
responsibility of the instructor to give the student a private verbal
warning and fill out a Problem Behavior Report. This report must
be given to the Penny or Zach, and will be placed in the student’s
file.
If the student continues to have a problem, the instructor must
bring the student to the office for a conference with Penny. The
student’s parents will be called to be notified about their behavior
problem and to be informed that upon another infraction that their
child will be removed from the program. A parent/teacher
conference may be scheduled at this stage.
Should the problem continue, the instructor and the student will
meet with the Penny, whereupon the student’s parent(s) will be
called and the student will be removed from the program. Fees
will not be refunded.
