ALT "A kid said something funny in class today and the entire room, myself included, burst out laughing and could not stop for several very long, very joyous minutes. I was in tears.
That won’t show up in any data sheet, but it matters too." —Marcus Luther, Teacher

"Real engagement isn't just engagement of students (signs of attentiveness and fulfilling requirements); it's also engagement by students, evidence that they are interacting with what they learn."

There really isn’t an excuse for not doing what’s best for kids. A school with a positive culture faces the problem and then asks, “Now what?”
🔸A student is chronically absent?
Now what?
🔹A student isn’t achieving?
Now what?
🔸A student is dysregulated?
Now what?
🔹A student seeks negative attention? Now what?
Culture is continuing the conversation rather than letting the excuse be the reason to end it.
