Positive Energy - optimism, trust, enthusiasm, love, purpose, joy, passion, and spirt to live, work and perform at a higher level. Negative people - energy vampires. Positive energy is very real. Positive people and positive teams produce positive results, and the essential ingredient is postive energy.

Remember Me?
Lori Sabo
“Hi, Mrs. Sabo. Do you remember me?”I am usually really good at remembering former students. My eyes scanned the face of the fifth grader before me as my mind scrambled to link it with the first-grade version I must have known. “Of course,” I cheerily lied, “but help me out with your first name.”
“De’oujmun, but everyone calls me De.”
It turns out he had been in my classroom as a first grader, but
only for a week. He attended five schools after that and had just
returned to ours again.
“Wow,” I said. “You have a lot of experience being the new kid.
Tell me, what are some things that teachers and students did to make you feel
welcome?”
He thought for a second and shared that at some schools, the
teachers were friendly and made sure he had everything he needed. Students in
those schools were welcoming, showed him around, and included him at recess.
Others schools didn’t feel as good. He said he felt disrespected by both
teachers and students.
I assured him that we were delighted to have him back in our
halls.
It can be
disconcerting when we get that call from the office announcing that a new
student is coming the next morning or is already on their way down the hall. My
heart rate quickens at the thought. But I’m reminded how important it is to
take a deep breath, put on a genuinely happy face, and model a spirit of
welcome and belonging that students can emulate. The impression we leave on a
student’s first day will likely be indelible, whether they are with us for five
days, 180 days, or somewhere in between. Let’s make their first day a great
one.
