THE SUCCESSFUL STUDENT: A Well Rounded Individual Though the Woodward Academy student is expected to meet high stan- dards in a variety of areas, each student is given the freedom and opportunity to choose his own course toward success. He is exposed to a varied curriculum from which he can excell in Academics, Athletics, Fine Arts or in a Leadership capacity. Each student is encouraged to take part in any activity which interests him, maintaining a certain quality of excellence and integrity. Although easi- ly said, it is not so easily done. In order to attain this excellence a student has to balance his time, giving each of his pur- suits adequate concentration. If the student ' s choice is to become an academic success, then he must make use of the library, hone his study skills, and if his needs warrant extra help, take advantage of tutorial. If he chooses to strive for excellence in athletics, he must be prepared for long, hard hours of punishing practice. He must know what is expected of him and how he should perform. He must also be aware of and accept the fact that his entire athletic career could be spent as a benchwarmer . To be successful in the realm of fine arts, the student must publicly exhibit his talents, opening himself up to the criticism of his peers. The fine arts stu- dent must be finely attuned to his world to be able to visually express his own interpretation of his environment. A chosen few of the student body excell in the area of leadership. The successful leader must have those quali- ties which set him apart from the rest. The student leader has the support of the students he represents and is known for his ability to lead and make deci- sions. Regardless of the area in which a Woodward student prefers to spend his time and effort, each student is a suc- cess. A Woodward student is the con- tinuation of a grand heritage and an investment for the future. 1 .
