Insights & Resources
A running series on what it means to understand children, support the adults who teach them, partner with families, and build schools that organize around these priorities.
The Most Impactful Investment a School Can Make is Intentional Family Education
One of the things I have learned across nineteen years of working with schools is that families are almost always more receptive than we expect. What looks like resistance is usually a family that does not yet have the context to understand what they are being asked to consider, which is something a school can build intentionally before the hard conversation starts.
Teachers Are Also Learners
I know what it feels like to be the teacher in the room, to have worked twelve hour days and still feel behind, to be observed and not know what the observer will comment, and to care deeply about children you cannot quite reach.
