Teachers… I wonder what your students are coping with at home this weekend.
Principals… I wonder what your staff is coping with at home this weekend.
It will matter when we see them on Monday.

Admin, this fall remember that it's not just students who experience trauma. You have staff members experiencing it too. Know your staff so you can help or at least let them know you are there for them. That can make a huge difference.

Great school culture is not an accident.
It happens when we recognize that we all depend on each other.
And then work together to create supportive, caring conditions for everyone—students, teachers, support staff, guests, everyone!

The best leaders want to know if they do something that makes someone else feel devalued, disrespected, or unsupported.
Leaders, let your staff know: “I will never intentionally disrespect you, but if I do, I want you to tell me so I can correct it.”

Why is it that all young mammals learn through play?
Because it works.
Why is it so hard for adults to understand this?
