		<description><![CDATA[The following is a wonderful poem written in 1905 by Bessie A. Stanley.  "What Constitutes Success?" was originally composed for entrance in a contest in Boston, Mass.  Not only did it win first prize of $250, it has gained notoriety through the years and is still a great definition of what we should all strive for.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The following is a wonderful poem written in 1905 by Bessie A. Stanley.  &#8220;What Constitutes Success?&#8221; was originally composed for entrance in a contest in Boston, Mass.  Not only did it win first prize of $250, it has gained notoriety through the years and is still a great definition of what we should all strive for.  </p>
<blockquote><p>He has achieved success who has lived well, laughed often, and loved much;<br />
Who has enjoyed the trust of pure women, the respect of intelligent men and the love of little children;<br />
Who has filled his niche and accomplished his task;<br />
Who has left the world better than he found it,<br />
Who has never lacked appreciation of Earth&#8217;s beauty or failed to express it;<br />
Whether an improved poppy, a perfect poem, or a rescued soul;<br />
Who has always looked for the best in others and given them the best he had;<br />
Whose life was an inspiration;<br />
Whose memory a benediction. </p></blockquote>
<p>The grades, test scores and extra-curriculars are all important.  But what about the intangibles that can&#8217;t be measured?  How is your student stacking up to these criteria?</p>
