Gratitude

We often talk or hear about practicing gratitude in the morning or evening.

How many times does that practice focus on things we have rather than people in our lives?

I explain a three step process we can use to lift others up and help them realize their value in this video. Doing that for others will have exponential effects on ourselves!

Christopher Jones Chris Jones or just "Doc"

Dr. Chris Jones has been an educator in Massachusetts for 24 years. His experience in the classroom ranged from 8th - 11th grade working in an urban setting. A portion of this was spent opening a high school division for an expanding charter school. He has just finished his 17th year as a building administrator. Currently the Principal of Whitman-Hanson Regional High School in Whitman, Massachusetts, Chris is also the President of the Massachusetts State Administrators Association (MSAA). He is the author of SEEing to Lead, a book that provides strategies for how modern leaders can and must support, engage, and empower their teachers to elevate student success. Chris vlogs weekly and is also the host of the podcast SEEing to Lead as a way to amplify teachers’, students’, and leaders’ voices in an effort to improve education as a whole. His just cause is to continuously improve the educational experience for all those involved by being purposeful, acting with integrity, and building character.

Chris is passionate about continuous improvement and the idea that success is not a destination, but a process. Chris is a teacher centered principal and his beliefs around the importance of a positive work environment, continuous growth, and a healthy family work-life integration can be seen in the presentations and workshops he has given for the Massachusetts School Administrators Association (MSAA), Massachusetts Computer Using Educators (MassCUE), Massachusetts Association of Supervision and Curriculum Development (MASCD), the Association of Supervision and Curriculum Development (ASCD), the National Association of Secondary School Principals (NASSP); and his participation in the Better Leaders Better Schools Mastermind group.

A finalist for the Massachusetts School Administrators Association’s Principal of the Year award and named the 2022 Massachusetts School Counselors Association’s (MASCA) Administrator of the Year, Chris is described by his current Chairperson of the School Committee as “...possessing a visionary approach to school leadership… has consistently demonstrated the ability to develop and communicate a clear, inspiring view for academic excellence and overall student success. In the ever evolving landscape of education, Chris stands out for his adaptability and openness to innovation. …not only receptive to change, but actively seeks out and implements innovative educational practices, ensuring that our district remains at the forefront of educational excellence.”

Chris’ education includes a BA from Bridgewater State University, an MA from Salem State University, and a Doctorate from Northeastern University. He currently resides in Southeastern Massachusetts with his wife, Mary (Bella) and two boys, Tommy and Scotty.
