CLASS DISCUSSION:

Why do you think the school asked Stanley to present to the students?
Because they want us to do something with our lives.
Mr. T wants us to go out and be someone & do something with our lives.
To show us you do not have to start at the top, you could start out poor and still do something good with your life.


What was his message:
His presentation was from his heart& his background.
To go from child to adult, scholarship something that he never thought possible. He wants us to make our dreams come true & life and make things happen.
