The science is clear. We can build resilience at any age.
This is our mission with schools:
Educators feel equipped to teach any student who walks into their classroom.
The latest relationship, regulation, and discipline science is actionable and felt in the school and classroom.
Building a culture of concern and promoting staff and student wellness is essential.
Discipline happens in school instead of putting kids out.
We are committed to using consequences to teach.
