And so, my fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.---John F. Kennedy

Every Friday in my school we have Community Meeting. We have level's such as C for considerate, cooperation, and cooperative. Level R for respect, role model, and responsibility. And level L for Loyalty and Leadership. I go to a small school and we have a level system so we can be successful in life. We have the meeting to get feedback on whatever we need to work on. We would get sent to the next level. You would start out at C and go up to R. Though we do have level S for support. It's a level where you would not like to be on. You work on things that you are having trouble with such as gossiping or bullying. You might get sent to one on one or be sent to the honors council and they'll decide what is best for you. 

Today, i signed myself up for a vote to level L: Leadership and Loyalty. Everybody knew, even myself, knew it was time. I felt super nervous. I mean, I've been a level R for at least 3 years i had to move on and show the community who i am and help the community with anything they need. My principal referred me to John F Kennedy. She even told me about the quote in the beginning of my blog. 

Everybody supported me, and i was glad! I was so glad, that i feel as if i am ready to be president myself...(jk) =)
