Take a trip with us!
We are on our way to a magical destination when we run into a detour. As we navigate the detour, we encounter obstacles of adversity, tragedy, trauma, and stress, yet we grow by being resilient. Resiliency is promoted through self-efficacy and directly correlates to teacher retention.
We will help supply teachers with a trauma-informed toolkit so that they can nurture and cultivate the growth of their students. Resilient teachers are better able to manage feelings, stress, failure, and challenges. Resiliency is built by surviving these detours and is necessary for teachers to maintain their capacity to teach at their best.
