Resilience In Schools & Educators

Resilience is cultivated in school communities one positive interaction at a time. Every teacher, administrator, custodian, counselor, crossing guards, cafeteria worker and school resource officer can cultivate resilience through the ordinary magic of connection. We all want to feel valued, seen and heard and when we are, we feel the power of connection. Every time we are recognized by name, in a simple greeting or with appreciation for who are, we feel valued. Each high five, smile and handshake demonstrates we have been seen. When we are able to share our emotions, our stories, our celebrations and our conflicts, we feel heard. In hallways, on playgrounds, in classrooms and bus lines, educators have the opportunity to create a sense of belonging, to let students and staff know they matter.

That’s impact.
