BOUNCE: Down is Inevitable. Up is a Choice.

We are all thrown down during the course of our lifetime. If it happens at a young age, it can seem incredibly unfair. Unfortunately, you and I cannot always control the circumstances of our lives. But we can control how we react. This is the choice no one on the planet can take from you—ever. No matter what happens to you, no matter how long it happens, you alone choose how you will respond. The most successful in life choose to bounce. They understand that falling down is inevitable. Rising up is a choice.

The message is straightforward and compelling. Your dreams matter. You matter. And no matter how bad or impossible your circumstances are, it’s never too late to rise above them and become the person you’ve dreamed of being. Bounce will show you how.

It literally does the hard work for you, allowing you to focus on giving individualized attention to each student.
