One of our most often requested topics for the 2025-2026 professional learning calendar has been Managing Behavior and Healthy Habits in our schools, Management of behaviors and community engagement issues abound and take up so much of the time and energy that we want to be spending on learning and growing our students each day.

This event is planned for school leaders, and we will focus on learning from behavioral specialists, Family Resource Center Directors, and Counselors nominated by their superintendents and representing each of our regional areas.

We may not answer all of your questions in this two-part series of meetings, but we will give each attendee new information to consider. I asked our nominated presenters to think about what student and behavioral challenges they have been seeing since Covid 19 in their schools and classrooms, and to share some strategies with our subscribers that they use successfully or as successfully as possible to support the students in their schools and in their classrooms.

I also asked the presenters to share a bit about how they were supporting families and engaging them in the on-going work with children. This specific training may be most beneficial to the school leaders in our state across all grade levels, K-8 and 9-12. Leaders who attend with their r counselors could benefit as well from some of the strategies. I know systems with behavioral coordinators will want to invite those leaders to attend. We plan to focus too on the ways that Family Resources Centers are being utilized to support engaged learning.
