Let the Games Begin!

"For most of my life I have believed that success is found in the running of the race.How you run the race-your planning, preparation, practice, and performance-counts for everything. Winning or loosing is a by product, and aftereffect, of that effort. For me it's the quality of your effort that counts most and offers the greatest and most long lasting satisfaction." John Wooden

A super effort given by all today that would have pleased even John Wooden. The time and effort put in up front to assure a smooth day paid off. The planning and preparation for dismissal, lunch times, class list, and arrival of students was very manageable with a few tweaks for tomorrow. Let's continue with the rules and procedures to assure all have them down correctly. This will make our year so much better. For those of you that may not know this, Lana had the opportunity to greet bus students this morn, and her first student to greet was our one and only Mr. Townsend. This sends a huge message to me that we are not in this alone. He stood with her while she did her bus duty and greeted our kids too. Pretty impressive if I have to say so myself. Never in my educational years have I had a superintendent ride the bus to school. Very few glitches happened, even in the office. I want to say Hip Hip Hooray to everyone for a fantastic start to what is going to be a Super Year. Keep up the good work, and know that the time spent up front in planning and preparation is never wasted.
