Culture & Climate
Positive Enviroments Enhance Performance
Virtual Workshop
Presenter: Kim Strobel & Steve Bollar
Our Culture and Climate curriculum gives you the tools to inspire greatness in your schools.
A healthy school climate dramatically improves the feel of the school and shapes how students feel about school. If the students are happy, then you and your teachers must create the conditions in which that happiness thrives.
Successful schools encompass healthy and positive cultures. If the importance of school culture is disregarded, the school can become a toxic learning and working environment and fail to achieve its educational goals.

Transforming Literacy
A response to the science of reading initiative
The Science of Reading (SoR) is an educational initiative based on complex research around literacy. It is not, however, a call to entirely change your reading program.

In response to the Indiana Department of Education Science of Reading Initiative, we invite you to join us this spring for a series of transformational OnDemand events from educational and literacy leaders across the state. These informative videos will address the needs of all readers in our classrooms. We will culminate our Spring Reading Series with a Reading Summit on June 9, 2022, where educators will be invited to grow in their understanding of the teaching and learning of reading. Interested in learning more?

Overcoming Educator Burnout Workshop:
Creating Happiness Habits for Wellbeing
Virtual Workshop
Presenter: Kim Strobel
You've poured your heart out to serve your students and schools, but it has come at a cost.
Because on top of trying to serve the endless learning needs of your students and meet a long list of expectations, you’re also trying to navigate:
Negativity from your colleagues (yep, I said it)
Frustration about decisions beyond your control
Uncertainty about whether or not you’ll get the support you desperately need
Bitterness over the challenging work conditions
And at the end of those long days, laying in your bed at night trying to fall asleep - feeling exhausted, depleted, and stressed, you start to wonder…
- Am I doing enough?
- Does what I’m doing even matter?
- Am I really qualified for this job?

Growth Mindset Workshop:
Boosting Motivation and Achievement
Virtual Workshop
Presenter: Dr. Emma Gibbs
Many students come to school with a fixed mindset meaning they believe their intelligence, talents, and skills can't be developed and they cannot grow or change. This belief profoundly affects the way students engage in school and their success in life.
When students adopt a growth mindset, they view challenges as opportunities to progress toward their desired outcomes. Students who believe they can develop their talents and abilities see roadblocks and critical feedback as methods to gather information they could use to help themselves learn.

Trauma-Informed Practices Part 1
4.5 hours
In this workshop, you’ll truly understand what your most vulnerable students need. You’ll learn how these struggling learners’ brains work and how to create a classroom environment that is sensitive to the needs of all students, regardless of background. 46% of students under 7 have experienced a traumatic event. 26% of children under 4 have experienced a traumatic event. As educators, we care immensely about our students beyond the classroom. We worry about their safety and well-being once they walk out our doors. Students entering the classroom with emotional, behavioral, or mental health issues are often at a disadvantage and struggle to keep up with the demands of traditional learning. Brains affected by trauma require a different kind of instruction – and a special kind of care.
We will cover the following:
-
The impact of stress and trauma on learning
-
How to build a resilient classroom
-
Creating gritty learners
-
Neuroscience and brain-based learning strategies
-
Dealing with students from Traumatic backgrounds
-

This workshop gives educators and schools an action plan to prioritize the personal well-being of students to promote their academic success and achievement. When your students enter your classroom, they bring with them their hopes, dreams, worries and traumas. Childhood trauma greatly impacts your students’ ability to learn and engage in the classroom. By implementing trauma-informed practices through a classroom and school-wide approach, you can provide your students with the tools they need to thrive, achieve and succeed. Through exploration of research, collaboration with peers, and hands-on practice with classroom strategies, educators and administrators will gain in-depth understanding of trauma-informed care at school. Our training guides schools through such topics as social and emotional learning as a curriculum, positive behavior interventions, daily mindfulness practice in the classroom and strategies to model emotional and self-regulation skills.

Revolutionizing Climate and Culture for Schools
4 hours
As happiness researcher, Shawn Achor says, “Happiness is one of the greatest competitive advantages you can give a brain” …raising creativity, test scores and productivity, as well as buffering against stress, anxiety, and depression. In this workshop, Kim Strobel, and Steve Bollar dive deep into understanding the underlying issues that prevent you from being able to shift your district, school or even your life. They give you a specific blueprint for increasing staff and student engagement, strategies, and tools to begin to make “the shift” happen, as well as Social and Emotional Wellbeing practices that truly transforms your schools. School Climate is how a school “feels.” It’s the relationships, attitudes, and overall perception of the school. School culture is the shared values, rules, belief patterns, teaching and learning approaches, behaviors, and relationships among or across the individuals. Both are essential to maximizing working and learning environments that help all succeed

Why Does This Student Have Problem Behavior?
Come Learn How Functional Behavior Assessments Hold the Answer!
Presenter: Mandi Rispoli
“Why does this student keep acting out?” “Their behavior happens out of the blue.” “I've tried everything and they keep engaging in problem behavior!” Persistent student challenging behavior often leads school personnel to make statements like these.
Functional behavior assessments hold the answers to these questions. A functional behavior assessment helps us understand why problem behaviors happen and forms a critical link to behavior support plans. Decades of research shows that the best way to reduce student challenging behavior is to conduct a high-quality functional behavior assessment.
This active workshop will take participants on a deep dive into the functional behavior assessment process. Through case studies, video examples, and active discussion, participants will learn how to conduct thorough and informative functional behavior assessments and how to link the results to effective and efficient behavior support plans.

Empowering Students to Realize their Academic Potential
Presenter: Jim Kestner
We all teach students with wide ranging ability. And while we focus much attention on differences, a characteristic many students share is falling short of their academic potential. Nationally recognized for his work with educators and students, Jim Kestner takes a fun and creative approach that equips teachers to empower students by 1) Recognizing the reasons behind student's lack of performance and 2) Applying strategies that not only improve achievement, but also count the factors that have stood in students' paths so far. Research-based approaches will help teachers empower students to become more self-directed learners who set goals, improve study skills, maximize retention from textbook reading, take effective notes, manage time, organize for success, become better test takers, balance sports, activities, and academics and tackle large long-term projects.
