Hop on Board the Energy Bus for a Ride to a More Positive You!
February 11, 2025, 9 a.m. - 12 p.m.
We are all feeling the stress from the several education reforms that have been thrust upon us. One means to combat stress is positive energy. Jon Gordon's book The Energy Bus discusses the importance of positivity in all aspects of life. Real positivity is about optimism, grip, mental toughness, and energy that delivers actual results. Positivity doesn't ignore reality. It maintains optimism and belief in order to create a better reality. This is an interactive academy facilitated by a certified Jon Gordon Companies trainer, Dr. Kelly D. Stewart, IASA 2014 Illinois Superintendent of the Year. This training addresses developing the power of positivity within oneself first and then within our schools.
