| Lizzie Ranck (L) and twin sister Erika write about their experience with Integrity. This is something that we teach in the Twirl-M's and that our students are very proud to uphold. |

| Integrity
When our friend, Lucy, promised to play with us at recess and then ditched us for other friends, we were very hurt and sad. Lucy didn’t treat us with honesty or the way she wanted to be treated. That was an example of somebody NOT having integrity.
In the sport of baton twirling, we always try to act with integrity by being honest about how many drops we have, by being respectful to our coaches and assistants and practicing even when we’re not told to. It’s the right thing to do!
In competition, we show our integrity by not questioning the judge’s decision, by supporting our friends who did better than us and by not bragging when we get 1st place!
It is important to have integrity whether you are at home with your family, at school, or even when doing an activity.
From, The Twirling Twins
