A — Achievement: Achievement is the glorious reward for your relentless pursuit. Aim for excellence in everything you do, and let your Achievement inspire others.”
The relentless pursuit of success, according to Rutsa, is fueled by these four pillars — A, N, T, A, encouraging the students dream big, work tirelessly, stay disciplined, and never, ever settle for less.
“Parents, your sacrifices as taxi drivers, working tirelessly to give these children a better future, are the backbone of this success. “ he added
