Educators returning to in-person or virtual classrooms are facing unprecedented challenges when it comes to balancing their traditional roles with supporting the growing social and emotional needs of students. Navigating the current educational environment requires new skills, and many district leaders are searching for fast but effective and flexible solutions to empower teachers and staff. As you plan for the future, one of the best sources is learning from the success of fellow district leaders who have seen positive change.

In this webinar discussion, you’ll hear from a panel of district leaders who will share valuable insights, including:

  • Their re-entry strategies to address social and emotional learning for teachers and students
  • How they quickly implemented virtual role-play trainings to prepare faculty and staff for scenarios they’re likely to encounter
  • Tips and insights that can help in your own planning and implementation strategies

Tune into this valuable discussion to learn from fellow district leaders and walk away with knowledge that will help you ensure your teachers and staff are prepared to support student mental health and trauma during the COVID-19 pandemic.
