30 Ways to Say Yay:
It is great having Mr. Jones at the MAC. Mr. Jones wants students to succeed, and this is evident through the relationships he builds with students in his classroom. He is consistent with his attendance and is a presence in the hallways during transitions and outside at the end of the day. I have witnessed Mr. Jones facilitating learning in the classroom, and it is very apparent that he cares about student learning. Mr. Jones devotes a lot of time to the students at the MAC as a coach as well. Mr. Jones is a team player and a positive force at our school. I have enjoyed the conversations I am able to have with him. I am glad he is a part of our team. Thanks for all you do Mr. Jones!
