I dunno, I'm still not behind it. Actions speak louder than words. Emblazoning a school with such an
au courant phrase and in such an exuberantly cute script seems more like a marketing signal for the school than anything constructive for the students...
Add to that the fact that I don't find phrases like this to be supportive at all. It's just another exhortation telling someone how to feel, in my mind. Like parents yelling at their kid's sports game "YOU GOT THIS!" and then having a meltdown when their kid doesn't perform to their expectations. What if people don't "got it"? I'd rather live in a world where that's acceptable.
If I could appreciate it in a vacuum I would say that I value the positivity of it, certainly.
