GOALS TO GROWTH. Goodbye 2024, hello 2025! It is a brand new year and a good time to start setting goals. Did you know that on average only about 31% of Americans set a New Year's resolution? Of this 31 percentile, only 9% are successful in achieving their goals. Well I can tell you that Valley Heights journalism is excited to get a jump on changing bad habits in the new year. Staff member Chad Bargdill says, “Eating healthier is my ultimate goal for the year.” Newest member Lili Slifer explains, “I am trying to make my language more appropriate.” Journalism staff leader Allison Jones says, “I want to cut back on soda.” There is no better way to begin the year on a new note and start fresh.
