Prep for State

A division of the Grayson Jones series

They Didn't Win Districts... But They're Going to State Anyway

Grayson Jones knows what it feels like to lose.

His team did their best. They showed up. They tried. They even had snacks.

But they didn't win.

They lost.

Until... they didn't?

Because Richard Nixon Middle School—the team that did win—just got caught cheating. Big time. Like, rule-breaking, secret-code-using, \"how did they even think this was okay\" cheating.

So now, everything's upside down.

And Grayson's team—the underdogs from Eisenhower Junior High who barely agree on anything—are headed to the state championship.

In Kansas City.

Tomorrow.

ðŸ§ Grayson Has ADHD. That's Not a Problem—It's His Superpower. ðŸ§

Grayson's brain doesn't follow a straight line. It zigzags. It loops. Sometimes it jumps off a cliff and forgets its parachute.

But here's the thing:

He's not trying to be \"normal.\" He's trying to be real.

And in this moment, what's real is this:

His team has no plan.

They've never practiced under pressure.

And they only got this shot because another school got disqualified.

The world might call that a lucky break.

But Grayson knows the truth: if they want to make it at state, they'll need to do more than just show up.

They'll need to figure out how to work together.

ðŸ§© Meet the Most Unexpected Debate Team in the Universe ðŸ§©

There are five of them.

One of them is allergic to group projects.

One of them corrects your grammar in real time.

One of them starts every sentence with \"Well, actually...\"

And one of them brings three backup pens and a highlighter to every meeting.

Also: there's Grayson.

Let's meet the squad:

Grayson Jones – ADHD genius, master of chaos, cactus hoodie enthusiast, part-time philosopher, full-time blurter. Creative? Absolutely. Organized? Not even close.

Maya – Cool, brilliant, and often terrifying. Her brain is a chessboard. She's thinking ten moves ahead. Unfortunately, most of the time she's also planning to murder someone (usually Theo).

Theo – Knows every rule in the debate handbook. Has printed copies. Laminated. Color-coded. Nervous energy and facts pour out of him like soda from a shaken can.

Jasmine – Quiet but powerful. Sweet but deadly. Writes arguments that make judges weep. She's the heart of the group—and also the only one who remembers to bring tissues.

Percival – British accent, dramatic flair, and a talent for monologues. Nobody knows what school club he was in, but it definitely involved capes. Percival is chaos in a cravat.

âš ï¸� There's Just One Problem: They Can't Stand Each Other âš ï¸�

They don't agree on anything.

Maya wants to rewrite the entire argument.

Theo wants to follow the rules to the letter.

Jasmine wants everyone to stop yelling.

Percival wants to perform Hamlet.

Grayson wants snacks.

They interrupt each other. They argue about whether rebuttals should be funny. Someone cried (Grayson). Someone threw a pencil (also Grayson). Maya stormed out of practice three times. Percival keeps writing in iambic pentameter.

Prep for State?

More like Prep for Total Meltdown.

ðŸ§ƒ Practice, Panic, Repeat ðŸ§ƒ

They only have three days to get ready. And that includes:

Writing new speeches

Memorizing old ones

Fixing the slideshow Theo accidentally deleted

Convincing Maya that group brainstorming isn't \"intellectual punishment\"

Finding Percival, who wandered off during a practice round to look for \"a better spotlight\"

Also, Grayson keeps getting distracted.

By what?

A pigeon with a limp.

The way the carpet smells like peanut butter.

The fact that Maya and Theo might have a secret rivalry that could destroy the group from the inside (or maybe they just like arguing too much).

ðŸš€ Something Starts to Shift ðŸš€

Somehow, between the chaos and the bickering, things begin to change.

Jasmine writes an opening speech that gives everyone goosebumps.

Percival memorizes it in one try—and adds a bow.

Maya and Theo work out a system that doesn't involve glaring daggers at each other (as much).

And Grayson?

He starts to lead.

Not in a \"captain of the team\" way.

In a real way.

He sees who needs a break. He notices when the room's about to explode. He says something goofy just in time to cut the tension.

He listens.

He adapts.

He realizes something nobody ever told him in school:

His ADHD brain is built for this.

âœ¨ The Superpower Nobody Expected âœ¨

Everyone told Grayson that ADHD would make things harder.

And, okay, sometimes it does.

But it also means:

He thinks fast.

He notices patterns.

He remembers weird, specific facts that nobody else does (like how the U.S. government once spent $2 million on a study about shrimp on treadmills).

He doesn't give up, even when everything seems like a disaster.

ADHD doesn't mean broken.

It means brilliant in a different way.

ðŸ§¨ Trouble Hits... Again ðŸ§¨

What if they don't belong here?

What if the only reason they're at state is because someone else cheated?

That's when something amazing happens.

Maya puts her hand on Grayson's shoulder.

Theo rewrites part of the speech from memory.

Jasmine pulls out a backup copy of the outline—because of course she did.

And Percival stands up on a chair and declares, \"WE SHALL NOT CRUMBLE!\"

It's weird.

It's loud.

It's perfect.

â�¤ï¸� They Don't Just Work Together—They Believe in Each Other â�¤ï¸�

Prep for State isn't just about writing arguments.

It's about:

Learning to listen.

Learning to lead.

Learning to trust people you don't always agree with.

It's about saying, \"I'm sorry\" when you mess up.

It's about laughing at yourself, crying sometimes, and getting back up when things go wrong.

And it's about something else, too:

Learning that your brain—exactly the way it is—isn't something to fix.

It's something to celebrate.

ðŸ�† State Is Coming. Ready or Not. ðŸ�†

Will they win?

Nobody knows.

But one thing's clear:

This team is more than just a group of kids thrown together at the last minute.

They're fighters.

They're thinkers.

They're ridiculously bad at using hotel vending machines.

And thanks to one chaotic, cactus-loving, distractible kid named Grayson Jones...

They're finally a team.
