Join Chicago Public Schools award-winning turnaround school leader and MTSS consultant Mioyshi Knox and Student Special Services Advocate Darius Weatherspoon as they share the secrets behind building student and staff relationships for academic success and mental wellness. Former colleagues — a principal and school intervention specialist — come together for a no-holds-barred conversation on how they worked together to build trust with high-ACEs students and each other to turn around a failing Chicago school. Attendees will learn:

• The five best ways to make students and staff feel safe and build trust
• What administrators need to know their staff wants; and what staff need to know their administrators want—but are afraid to tell each other
• The best trauma-informed strategies and tools for building students’ coping skills around their real-world challenges
• How to lead so that students and staff show up and are motivated to do their best

This edWebinar will be of interest to school and district leaders of PreK through high school grade levels, as well as deans, counselors, social workers, federal program coordinators, and all those involved in student mental and behavioral health. There will be time for questions at the end of the presentation.
