Correspondence: Mrs. Trisha Phillips, Maple Avenue Middle School

“When Mr. Johns handed me over The Energy Bus it became my new motto-I was already a pretty positive person and sent out a pretty positive vibe-but the contagiousness of the positive energy, the positive feel, the positive love and life that you can live is something that truly fills up your soul each day and spreads throughout you!

I see a change in my students as they spread the message daily, I see the positive change in my family as we discuss some quotes from the book and I try every day to “change my mindset” if needed. I will tell myself one thing every morning or night that I am thankful for, I will think of others who I can help today, I will take a very negative situation at work (which can happen often) and I will only highlight the positive.

Thank you, Mr. Johns, for the wonderful gift of positivity and respect that your message truly delivers! I am excited about my bus, I am excited to add more to the bus and I am excited to spread its continuous positive message…”
