Mr. Andrews explains that encouraging others helps build confidence, whether someone is learning to walk at age 2 or developing skills at age 8, and urges students to offer enthusiastic words of support. He encourages everyone to expect the best from themselves and each other, reinforcing the idea that they can be bigger and better people with encouragement. He closes by reminding students they live by the Jefferson Creed and repeats this year’s theme of collective excellence, saying students can be better together.
