Safe Place For Learning

This page exists to foster safety and belonging in schools for students, teachers, and parents.
Knowledge isn’t the most pressing thing we teach our students. In this digital age, knowledge will always be accessible. What we are experiencing in education is that one of the most important things we are teaching young people is how to live in community. Humans are social
Trump’s ‘Deportation Priority’ order prioritizes targeting workplaces, hospitals, school pick-up, or people who call emergency services rather than focusing on arresting & detaining dangerous criminals. Impacts: Labor shortages in critical sectors & preventable deaths (6/11)
I get asked: where should education investments be, if not voucher schemes and subsidies? Short A) local communities. Longer A) GYO teacher pipelines, tutoring, school meals and wellness, early child ed, school infrastructure and tech, college & non-college pathways and more.
There are five magic words every educator or person working with kids needs to know. “It’s okay, I’m not mad.” They don’t do a lot for the kid who is escaped in front of you but they magically remind you that you are still in control. #edutwitter
When we teach our children that they must follow any rule an adult puts in place, no matter what, we make them vulnerable. When we teach them that they have no real voice, we make them vulnerable. When we tell them them have no right to ask why, or to explain themselves, we make…
The medical model of MTSS assumes something is wrong with a kid. What if we thought of kids more like an ingredient we are cooking with. Nothing is wrong with the kid, some are just spicier than others. A good teacher will know how to bring out the best in each learner.
A behavior is a skill that can improved upon, but a statement about a person’s worth is trauma inducing. There are good and bad choices my students can make, but I don’t have “bad” students. I believe in unconditional positive regard for my students and assuming positive intent.
It would be great if every kid could tell us... “I don't feel safe.” “I don't feel loved.” “I don't feel I belong.” That's just not how it works. So they'll find other ways to tell us. When they do, we need to listen.
If you’re not afraid of Project 2025, you should be.
I’d say we have an excellent shot as long as we stay strong. This Project 2025 is like a gift from heaven to sway independents. We need to POUND the crap out of it. Post it on every telephone pole in every bathroom stall and start a snail mail campaign. He’ll make 1,000,000 paper…
One flag. One America. Shocker that MAGAs hate this.

There is always going to be a WHY for a behavior. You will almost never find that out from the students in the moment or even directly asking them. They won’t know. They have a need and it isn’t being met. A regulated adult will find it out but never through punishment.
🔍 There's always something critical beneath the surface of behaviors. We must grasp the WHY and the NEED before we can assist a more efficient interaction. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #TeacherTwitter
❓ If we're struggling with student engagement, the question is, "How can I forge a stronger relationship with this student?" not, “How should I penalize this student?" #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #TeacherTwitter
⛔ No learner should be "condemned" to a resource room all year due to a convenient timetable. There exist efficient small-group teaching alternatives! #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #TeacherTwitter
