An overemphasis on attendance puts students’ health at risk and instills the value of working through illness. The pandemic made it clear how dangerous that is, @SarahHosseiniUS writes. @TheAtlantic https://t.co/MFkomClyMo

"We are not fulfilling the true promise of SEL if we continue to use it as another form of policing under the empty promises of words that feel and sound good."

The attitudes of the adults in a #school quickly become the attitudes of the students.

Never forget that #attitude is highly contagious.

Dear parents,

Stop telling your kids that if somebody hits them, they should hit them back. It promotes a never-ending cycle of revenge, and *actually* increases their chances of harm.

Protection and payback ain’t the same.

Signed,
Teachers
