Press Release Summary: Winning Hearts Leads to Winning College Scholarships
Press Release Body: Think of the word EURbriberyEUR and Enron, kickbacks, politics, and government come to mind. But, there is a good kind of bribery. An Illinois high school studentEUR(tm)s Dad made it a goal to find out the birthdays and anniversary dates of each of his childEUR(tm)s teachers. Then, throughout the school year, the teachers received cards, candy, and flowers. This behavior was unexpected. Some might even call the actions EURbribes.EUR The result? It made the teachers feel appreciated needed and turned ordinary days into exceptional ones to be remembered for months, and even years to come.
Dale Clifton, author of EURThe Best Little Scholarship Book in the WorldEUR and EURThe Champions Goal SetterEUR for high school students, notes that little remembrances are cherished, and the people who give them are not forgotten. EURWe all like to be remembered in caring ways. The administrators, teachers, staffs and bus drivers of your school arenEUR(tm)t any different. Kind words are good, a thoughtful note is better, but a small gift is best.EUR
A Wisconsin teacher remarked in class that he had lost his gloves and his hands had not yet thawed out from shoveling snow before school. Clifton relates, EURThe next day, the teacher came to his room and noticed a pair of brand new gloves on his desk. The mother of the student who brought the gloves sent the teacher an Email. What did that teacher say in his recommendation letter for that studentEUR(tm)s later scholarship applications? Everything good, bet on it!EUR Clifton asks, EURWho will be affecting your student? Who will your student have for teachers in the coming year?EUR Find out who they are. Remember the receptionist in the guidance office, the cooks, and custodians. Bus drivers often have a particularly difficult situation. DonEUR(tm)t forget the principal and vice-principal. Many times these people are only remembered when something negative happens. Let them know you recognize and appreciate the jobs they perform for the benefit of your child.
Favors and kindnesses are always returned. And, in those few short years, when college scholarship time rolls around, people will be happy to write glowing testimonials for your student. Make that commitment for your student. The results will astound and produce huge scholarship dividends.
