'The response to the parent's workshop was totally positive. Parents were excited to take home and implement what they had learned. I teach parenting classes and I really enjoyed the 10 Power Tips. It's very important to get this information to parents when children are at the elementary level and head off problems down the road. Thank you very much.'
-Pat Dalton, Edgewater (NJ) Alliance Chairperson
To kick off our Goal to establish a Blue Ribbon School, we brought in Russell and Lin Jones to work with our students and parents... to motivate them... get them excited about life... to reach for their full potential. The Power Workshop hit the mark. The students (who can be tough) were excited and the parents captivated. The 10 Power Tips were not only relevant but real. The parents seemed eager to translate the message into their own homes. I would welcome their participation on a yearly basis... and will wholeheartedly recommend them to other school districts.'
-Ernest Brattstrom, Superintendent of Schools, Somerdale Public School District, NJ
'Russell and Lin gave our parents a lot of great tips on raising children today. They were not afraid to speak the truth in a clear, concise, and sometimes entertaining way. Thank you very much.'
-Linda Holonia, President, Audubon (NJ) PTA
'I would like to thank Lin and Russell for the day they spent with our children and our parents. The children had a wonderful experience today. The parents were very attentive and I believe the '10 Power Tips' will enrich them and their families. Again, thank you!'
-Paula Braxton, Principal, Franklin Elementary School, Rahway, NJ
'The parent's workshop was excellent. As a parent and as a counselor, the important points that were made were basic common sense, but they were ones that we do not think about enough. We need to be reminded of how much better we can do as parents. Thank you, very much.'
-Fran Gavin, Substance Awareness Coordinator, Rahway (NJ) Schools
'Personally, my children came home so excited after being at the Power Workshop today. They called their dad at work to ask if they could get on the Internet so that they could visit (the Power Workshop) at your new website. After seeing you last year, I knew we needed to have you back for the kids as well as the parents. Lin and Russell are a dynamic team. You built the dreams and hopes of all the students ... the parents are now equipped to help build and encourage those young 'dreamers'. Thank you.'
-Karen Wohlrab, Cultural Arts Coordinator, Deerfield Elementary School, Linden, NJ
'It was a pleasure to have Russell and Lin bring their positive message to our kids... and parents. They were very well received and I highly recommend them. We hope to have them back soon!'
-Pat Nibylski, parent, Hillside Ave. School, Cranford, NJ
'The parent's workshop was great. The way they use so many different techniques to bring home their message was excellent. Personal stories, anecdotes, demonstrations with parents... as well as valuable handouts, all made for a thought-provoking and exciting presentation. People related to the Letterman-type countdown. The evening was an all- around success... the turnout was better than expected. I really enjoyed it... Lin and Russell are doing a good thing.' -Denise Tobin, Coordinator, Hopatcong (NJ) Elementary Parent Teacher Organization (HEPTO)
