A4: Making sure all activities are inclusive for all students and that no one person or group is left out, more real world connections to read alouds and experiences. Supporting all students socially and emotionally and doing so with love. #MEMSPACHAT

Hi Jenn Kitchen, Aspiring Administrator in Wayne County, MI checking in tonight. Focusing on building culture through conversations and personal experiences with self reflection is a crucial part of embracing diversity within our district. #MEMSPACHAT

[Jenn Kitchen @JennKitchen07]

@bekdhaene Thank you so much. 🤍

[Jenn Kitchen @JennKitchen07]

A3: promoting the acceptance of diverse subgroups through read alouds, morning meeting discussions, Playworks and practices like our Second Step Program the no tolerance policy for bullying/discrimination. #MEMSPACHAT

[Jenn Kitchen @JennKitchen07]

Great keynote presentation from @thomascmurray to start our year off. Make a difference the first day and everyday after. #PersonalAndAuthentic

[Jenn Kitchen @JennKitchen07]

@AllysonApsey @TaraMartinEDU @burgess_shelley @burgessdave @dbc_inc My hope is to build strong relationships with students while creating an environment of trust and inclusion, where they can be themselves and support one another.

[Jenn Kitchen @JennKitchen07]

A4: Creating opportunities and/or experiences to make connections across our differences. (stories, photos, interests,etc.) Supporting Ts and Ss to listen to differences and learn how to support those within our school and classroom communities. #LeadLAP

[Jenn Kitchen @JennKitchen07]

A3: A strong culture and climate is created when everyone feels welcome, heard, and valued. This includes students, staff and the community as as well. #LeadLAP

[Jenn Kitchen @JennKitchen07]

A2: Creating an environment of inclusion and trust, giving teachers time to discover "who" they are teaching, not just. Giving teachers opportunities to make connections through SEL and continuing to support those needs throughout the year. #LeadLAP

[Jenn Kitchen @JennKitchen07]

A1: To promote a sense of belonging we create a school and class mission statement which we strive to fulfill each day, this creates a strong class community. We also as a school participate in morning meeting and weekly town halls that bring everyone together. #LEADLAP

[Dawn M. Harris MEd, EdS @DHarrisEdS]

Q1:
A sense of belonging at school can have a profound impact on a child's emotional wellbeing, as well as their academic success. How do you prioritize "belonging" as part of school initiatives or as a factor in meeting organizational goals?
Please use A1 in your reply.
