The Power of Relationships A Back-to-School Priority

Inspired by an article from Education Week, we explore what most teachers agree is their top priority on the first day of school: building strong connections with their students. Discover why this isn't just a "feel-good" idea, but a research-backed strategy central to tackling major educational challenges. We discuss how simple actions, like a genuine "hello" or a conversation about a student's weekend, can have an incredible impact on school culture.We'll share actionable strategies for school leaders, from being visible in hallways and greeting students by name to giving teachers the time and space needed for community-building activities. Learn how prioritizing relationships can reduce chronic absenteeism, decrease misbehavior, and boost overall student engagement.
