Little Eyes Upon You

Here's a great reminder that your attitudes and actions set an example for many. You are more than just a varsity basketball player in our program, you are a role model. You are all looked upon by siblings, younger students, teammates and other members of our community. Take pride in that you are looked upon by so many and conduct yourself accordingly. Your actions have an impact on the future of our program, school district and community.

Your thoughts become your words, and your words become your actions, and your actions become habits, and habits determine your character. Always remember that CHARACTER COUNTS!

There are little ears that quickly
take in every word you say.

There are little hands all eager
to do anything you do;

And a little boy who's dreaming
of the day he'll be like you.

You're the little fellow's idol,
you're the wisest of the wise.

In his little mind about you
no suspicions ever rise.

He believes in you devoutly,
holds all you say and do;

He will say and do, in your way
when he's grown up just like you.

There's a wide-eyed little fellow
who believes you're always right;
and his eyes are always opened,
and he watches day and night.

You are setting an example
every day in all you do;

For the little boy who's waiting
to grow up to be just like you.
