When I walk in a school, I don’t just observe to see if front office or teachers are happy. I observe custodians, cafeteria workers, everyone. Because building positive school culture means everyone is valued & appreciated. And if the custodians are happy, everyone is happy.

Booneville led wire to wire but needed a late 4th down conversion to hold off Prescott for the 3A championship!

We're inside three hours from kickoff for the 3A state championship game between Booneville and Prescott!

Looks like the weather is going to cooperate (fingers crossed) today and it should be a great matchup. Plenty of time to get to @WMStadium!

PARENTS: You are your child’s most important teacher.

- If you Blame others, your child will.
- If you Complain, your child will.
- If you Make Excuses, your child will.
- If you Point Fingers, your child will.

If you Accept Responsibility, your child will.

I always tell parents #1, but 2-10 is great advice, too!

Sports Parents, this is for you.

How you talk to your child matters.

Here are 10 Phrases that All Athletes Need to Hear...

1: “I LOVE WATCHING YOU PLAY"
This is a powerful statement to a child. There is no judgment or criticism. Ultimately, this is all you really need to say.

2: “I BELIEVE IN YOU”
Do you want to build confidence in your child? Tell them you believe in them. They need to hear this from adults.

3: "DO YOUR BEST"
We are all different. We all have different skill sets. All we can ever do is our best.

4: "BE GREAT AT WHAT YOU ARE GOOD AT"
This encourages athletes to focus on their strengths. It helps kids define their role on the team.

5: "LOVE YOUR TEAMMATES"
The joy of team sports comes from the commitment to your teammates. Athletes need to care about their teammates.

6: "NEXT PLAY"
This is a move-on mindset. Don't dwell on a mistake and make another. Don’t celebrate after a great play so much that you lose your focus. This teaches athletes composure and poise.

7: "MAKE MEMORIES"
Live in the moment. A season goes fast. Your high school career goes fast. Appreciate the moments and cherish the memories.

8: “PASS THE MIRROR TEST"
Can you look in the mirror each night? And tell yourself that you did your best, left it on the field or court, were a good teammate, etc.

9: "LEAD BY EXAMPLE"
This is the first step to leadership. Be on time, and have a high character. Bring positive energy. Be one of the hardest workers. Be committed.

10: “LEAD OUT LOUD"
Lead by Example, then Lead Out Loud. Be a Vocal Leader. Be an Encourager. Be willing to hold teammates accountable.

Congratulations to Booneville and Prescott as they have earned the @everettbuickgmc ride to the finals as they each picked up wins in the 3A semis last night!

[𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐝 𝐉𝐨𝐡𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐧 @DrBradJohnson]

Every adult in the school, regardless of role, should bring their best every day because every adult in the school is a difference maker for every student.

A new champion will be crowned in class 3A but who will survive in the quarterfinals?

@BoonevilleF at @HGHORNETFB1
@junctionfb at @grbeaverssd
@tigers_mhs at @SalemSchools
@BismarckSD at @psd_wolves

[𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐝 𝐉𝐨𝐡𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐧 @DrBradJohnson]

Effective teachers don't center their approach on rules, but rather on relationships, routines, & expectations. Prioritizing these over rules means spending less time enforcing them. When you invest in relationships, routines, & expectations, rule enforcement becomes less needed
