Transform Your Culture In 30 days

 

 

Ben Jones knew he was going to be a principal when he was in 3rd grade. His entire school career, while a bit tumultuous at times, gave him experiences that helped him become an impassioned educator.  After graduating from the University of Georgia in December of 2002, he began teaching at Carson Middle School in Greene County, GA. 

 

After getting married in 2004, Ben and his wife moved to Forsyth County, GA where Ben began teaching at Liberty Middle School. In 2010, Ben became the Graduation Coach at LMS where he supported students, parents, and teachers. In 2012, he had the privilege of being named one of the Assistant Principals at SilverCity ES. 4 years later, he was named AP at South Forsyth Middle School. In 2019, he was named the Principal at Shiloh Point ES where he proudly remains today.

 

Ben is a faithful Christ follower, loves to read, watch movies with his family, and eat Twizzlers. He is also a member of the Guiding Principals Mastermind that meets on Wednesday nights!

ORGANIZED BINDER

Why do students struggle? I'd argue that they lack access to quality instruction, but think about it. That's totally out of their control. What if there was something we could teach kids there was something within their control that would help them be successful in every class? It's not a magic pill or a figment of your imagination. 

 

When students internalize Executive Functioning Skills they succeed.
