Tuesday, September 10 — Trauma Informed Classroom with Jessica Broullire and Teri Beeson The first session of this series will examine the intersection of trauma and learning. Dysregulated bodies and minds can hijack precious learning time. Understanding the “why” behind the behavior improves responses to dysregulation. We will discuss simple strategies to connect and redirect behavior to get students and learning back on track. Register at https://hubs.la/Q02NldN10 #StandforGood #CHSSD
