A Slice with 'Dice
The Benefit of Breaking a Bone (Figuratively!)
Challenges aren't setbacks—they're setups for future success. ASMSA Executive Director Corey Alderdice explores the insightful "Never Broke a Bone" Theory, highlighting why students need to encounter and learn from manageable hardships during their high school years. He discusses how experiencing academic or personal setbacks in a supportive environment builds resilience, develops critical coping skills, and prepares students to independently navigate the less-structured world of college and beyond.
