Senators show responsibility by being prepared. Being late, or being early, is not something that just happens to you, it is a choice you make each day. Take 10 minutes before bedtime to get ready for the next day. Pack your backpack, make your lunch and decide what you will wear. Those few extra minutes in the morning will make it easier to get to school on time. Have a great week from Be A Senator.
