Positive Behavior In Schools - we need more of it, for sure.  Maple Avenue School makes it their mission, and actually reserved an entire day to celebrate it.  All they needed was a theme song! 

Thanks to Mr. Coons and Ms. Karas for inviting me in to help create a quick (and I mean very quick) jingle for this very special day.

We had a grand total of 20 minutes with each of two sections of 8th graders.

 

The only way to do this efficiently was to have the first group write one part, the next group the next, and then somehow get them to sing the chorous together (using slight studio trickery).  I must say, the kids were GREAT, cooperative and really creative under this time crunch.

Here's their song!

Awesome job, guys.  Feel free to use it as your theme all year long!
