FFA Awards Night Banquet 


Want to cut through small talk?

Try asking a 'magical question'

"A magical question is a question that everyone in your group is interested in answering," and hearing the responses to, says Priya Parker, a conflict resolution facilitator and author of the 2020 book The Art of Gathering: How We Meet and Why It Matters.



I read the article above this morning. It is an interesting view on how to ask questions that keep everyone engaged. This can easily be applied in our classrooms and at home. Please take some time to listen or read if you can. 

If you would like to hear a great performance, come out to Cotton tonight at 7:00 to hear the concert bands from FBMS and FBHS perform! 

Thank you for all you are doing to make the end of the year special for our students and families. I hope you all have a great weekend where you can rest up for the busy week next week.
