Let's continue to start the school year off on the right foot! Leaders, how can you build a safe and healthy school culture? In Edutopia - George Lucas Educational Foundation's recent article, they address this question, identifying simple steps every district can take to increase educator well-being: 💚 Seek multichannel feedback 💚 Support educator "basic needs" like time to regulate and slow down 💚 Help "find time" for teachers 💚 Act as a sounding board, especially with family communication 💚 Subtract what can be removed; do NOT add more "solutions" 💚 Treat educators like professionals What would you add to this list? ⬇️ ✨We would encourage fostering secure relationships from the top down!

🍎We know that many districts are in full swing and others are busily preparing for the new school year! As you continue to set up your classrooms, build your lessons, and tackle the never-ending to-do list, we want to support you in your most important work–building secure relationships.🌱💚 We talk about the importance of relationships in education a lot—but what does this even mean? What does it look like to build relationships in schools? Why does it even matter? We wrote this blog to help every person working in schools understand that relationships are not just “warm and fuzzy stuff” — they literally change the brain. And, that a focus on strong relationships isn’t another thing to add to an educator’s plate...it is the plate. https://bit.ly/4cn21OO #EdChat #EdLeaders #Edu #Education #Principals #Teacher #Superintendents #Relationships

Admin, how can you start this school year off right? This EdWeek article highlights the importance of building better relationships between district leaders and teachers. "Building strong relationships with teachers—a perennial priority for school and district leaders—has become even more important as schools rebound from the difficulties of the past few years." Active listening and encouraging a climate where educators can show up as their whole selves are essential! FuelEd's mission is centered around supporting schools and districts in building these relationship-driven schools. https://bit.ly/3ymZ2rO #relationshipdriven #relationshipbuilding #backtoschool #backtoschool2024 #edchat #districtleaders #principals

Another key component of #SEL is relationship skills. Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning (CASEL) describes this as: The abilities to establish and maintain healthy and supportive relationships and to effectively navigate settings with diverse individuals and groups. FuelEd's mission is to develop emotionally intelligent educators who build relationship-driven schools. It is the foundation of everything we do because we know that relationships drive learning! As many of you are prepping for the new school year (or even perhaps already setting up your classrooms), take a moment to consider how you plan to build safe, secure, and intentional relationships with your team, colleagues, students, and community. Check out this blog post by FuelEd Founder and Partner, Megan Marcus to read more about the importance of relationships: https://bit.ly/3Sq19SI #schoolclimate #schoolculture #teacherwellbeing #teacherwellness #learning #backtoschool #backtoschool2024

One of the core SEL competencies is Self-Awareness. Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning describes self-awareness as: The abilities to understand one’s own emotions, thoughts, and values and how they influence behavior across contexts. Self-awareness is a core learning in our programs. It can help educators understand and notice their own thoughts, feelings, and reactions which provides them with the opportunity to regulate and reflect on how they are showing up in the classroom.
