#Culture is a powerful force that can transform everything it touches. As the saying goes, “culture eats everything else for breakfast.” It’s heartening to hear stories of how whole-grade archery programs can help create wins, build a sense of belonging, and transform middle school culture. These programs can have a profound impact on students who might otherwise feel left out. Let’s celebrate the power of culture to bring people together and create positive change. #archery #StudentBelonging #MiddleSchool https://lnkd.in/eMFhdBBG

We are celebrating Family Day in support of American Education Week! Family and guardians taking active roles in their child’s education on a daily basis can be crucial for optimal success at school. Schools can ensure parents and caregivers are equipped with the information they need by establishing successful communication systems. Here are a few suggestions: -Consider resource learning sessions that take place where families and caregivers congregate. -Meet at libraries, grocery stores, churches, or community centers. -Account for translation needs in diverse communities. -Offer community-centered restorative practices and events for families, community leaders, and school representatives. For example, set up an event with a dialogue facilitator on becoming comfortable having uncomfortable conversations. What are some ways you have found communicating with families and guardians that has led to student success? #AEW2023

I recommend reading this article, "Fostering Community, Sharing Power: Lessons for Building Restorative Justice School Cultures". https://lnkd.in/dzCyCtN2 Restorative justice as one aspect of the multi-pronged approach to address school disorder, school violence, and school inequity. This is a rich discussion with a solid list of the ways restorative justice was implemented and the results in five schools. “Our findings affirm the importance of implementing RJ as a holistic framework to relationship building and conflict resolution that extends well beyond specific disciplinary incidents and is integrated into the broader workings of the school. The breadth and depth of the key implementation lessons—centering community building, reconsidering school hierarchies, crafting comprehensive notions of accountability, integrating restorative practices throughout school life, engaging with adversity and diversity, and fostering student leadership—describe a cultural shift, rather than the implementation of a contained program.” #Mythopoesis #TeenTherapist #IFS #TeenCounseling #TeenProgram #Parenting #TeenWellness #AdolescentTherapy #Therapist #FamilyCounselor #SchoolCounselor #Relationships #MindfulParenting #Validation #EmotionalRegulation #socialjustice

This district continues to be full of lies. They will get teachers of color but they CANNOT “retain them.” There is no mention in this article about how many teachers of color left the district, how many educators and administrators of color that have been affected by health issues due to stressful working conditions in this district, and how they plan to “retain the ones” that are currently there. I read nothing about how educators and administrators of color will be protected, nutured, loved and healed. I heard nothing about a plan to make sure educators of color have a sense of belonging. This entire article is a form of tokenization. The weight that this district puts on educators of color to “fix” the “gap”, while being forced to assimilate to whiteness while swallowing themselves, just to survive (not thrive) as an educator in this district is ridiculous. Did the teachers of color get compensation for speaking out on this article? No white teacher was interviewed on how they will support the students of color in their classrooms this year that don’t look like them. Their voices are not a representation of every educator of color in this district. They are speaking to teachers of color that are new to the district. Let's hear from the ones that have been there for some time. The ones who have been silenced and invisibilized. Let’s honor the ones that are no longer there. Interview the white educators and administrators that have seen the struggle for educators of color. Let’s centralize the conversations in this district around “whiteness” and how it has impacted not only education but schooling as well. If any district ever did this, we would be so much farther along. Call me crazy, but I’m pretty sure you have to fully understand what the problem is before a REAL solution can occur and this district refuses to do so, as many others do as well. Don’t hire educators of color if you don’t see and hear the ones that are currently in this district. Don’t hire educators of color if you can not protect them against systemic racism. Tell the truth, let them know what they’re up against and the lack of support they will receive. Tokenization at its best. CCSD don’t capitalize this as a win. This is history repeating itself. In the words of Bettina Love…you’re “spiritually murdering” educators and administrators of Color. #fullofshit #dismantle #RacismIsAChoice

Through the two-generation approach, children in the Learning Community Center in North Omaha increased social-emotional skills, approaching or exceeding the national average in all areas. WHY THIS MATTERS: A child's social-emotional development provides a foundation for learning from elementary school to the workforce. When young children develop positive relationships at home and in school, they feel more secure in learning and building relationships.

Bridge Builder Between Schools and Families; National Speaker, Trainer & Coach; Award-Winning Author
"Any system created by humans can be transformed by humans as well. If we are going to effectively create more just and collaborative educational systems, we need to make key decisions together. More important perhaps, we need to change the ways in which we approach our partnerships—both the how and why that drive our work with families. . . We need to equip educators with efficient, high leverage practices that help them build stronger relationships with families, enhance learning outcomes, and transform school communities." In honor of the launch of my book On The Same Team: Bringing Educators and Underrepresented Families Together, this is one of a few quotes I’m sharing this month. My book highlights many of the learnings from hundreds of collaborative gatherings that center family voices and offer a proven structure for creating more equitable schools. #schoolimprovement #familyengagement #schoolleadership #teacherleadership #equityineducation Solution Tree NAFSCE (National Association for Family, School, and Community Engagement) National Center for Community Schools National Association of Elementary School Principals (NAESP) National Association of Secondary School Principals (NASSP) TalkingPoints National Center for Families Learning
