A federal mandate has been issued to reduce “minority” office referrals and suspensions. Because of this directive, many schools are having more difficulty than usual. Teachers and administrators have not learned how to use authority without some form of coercion. DISCIPLINE WITHOUT STRESS is the only system that uses authority WITHOUT coercion.

Having taught, been a counselor, and principal at the elementary, middle, and high school levels, I believe that teachers have the greatest behavior challenges at the middle school level. Therefore, since my passion is to improve education, I will start calling

You can get all A’s and still flunk life. —Walker Percy

A well-known wordsmith once approached Noah Webster, the lexicographer, and said, “Mr. Webster, did you know that ‘sugar’ is the only word in the English Language in which the ‘su’ is pronounced as if it were ‘shu’?”

Webster relied, “Are you sure?”

Many school districts are starting to limit the types of consequences that teachers and administrators can impose for unruly classroom and school behaviors. This is resulting in a significant increase in discipline problems where the staff

Between stimulus and response, there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our responses lie our growth and our freedom.

 The quality of your self-talk dictates the quality of your life because whatever you feed yourself is the source of your growth.

Janus, is the double face from which the month of January derives its name. One face looks backward and the other forward. Janus presided over the beginning and ending of conflict, and hence war and peace—the end and the beginning. 

Janus frequently symbolized change and transitions such as the progress of the future from the past, from one condition to another, from one vision to another, from young people’s
