Mad Hot Ballroom Reflection Essay

Student success was based on knowledge and intelligence through hard work and dedication towards all classes in high school. Research was made and found that Anaheim schools can improve student success if the following changes take place: class time for all students being extended, students being taught that a growth mindset is a healthier way to succeed in school and life rather than having a fixed mindset and lastly by being open-minded with one another along with being positive to new ideas and canceling out negativity.
