Correspondence: William H. Barton Intermediate School

What a great choice we made to kick off the start of this school year by having Rich Johns speak to our students and parents. He is authentic and presents real-life situations that enables his audience to make emotional connections that will not be forgotten. As a school counselor, I continue to bring his lessons into conversations that I have with students about self-reflection and showing empathy for others. As a school, we have common language such as “What’s your 99% today?” It’s great to have a phrase that cuts right to the heart of the matter and every one gets it. Rich Johns doesn’t present a canned program but a living, breathing dose of what truly matters, people.
