COUNTY SCHOOLS

Spring Learning Activity

In preparation for the upcoming school year, a spring learning opportunity will be offered for
individuals employed by Jackson County Schools for the 2023-2024 school year. The book
study will develop and reinforce important skills employees must employ to best meet the
academic and interpersonal needs of students. These important skills will be a priority focus
during the 2024-2025 school year and beyond.

Participating employees, full-time or half-time, will be provided with the book that will be
featured in our opening day sessions and referenced throughout the school year.
Employees who apply to participate in this learning activity, and invest the necessary time
and effort, outside their normal contract period, to read the book and complete the assigned
tasks, will be compensated in the amount of $500. Regardless of participation in this
summer learning activity, all employees will be learning about these topics on opening day
and after as a part of their regular employment contract.

In addition to the opening day sessions, components of the book will be covered in
professional development sessions with supervisors during the opening days of school, and
from time to time during the school year.

Book to be provided:

ALL Personnel will read the same book: The Energy Bus, by Jon Gordon, will focus on
improving your achievements, as well as bringing out the best in you through the practice of
10 Rules that generate positive energy.

To participate in this learning activity, those employed for the 2023-2024 school year must:

1. Complete the application process designated for the book study by April 26, 2024.

2. Read the assigned book, complete and submit the written assignment to your
immediate supervisor on or before May 31, 2024.
