Educators spend so much time trying to understand what students need beneath the surface of a moment.
Functional communication strategies can help replace frustration with connection and support. We hope this Preschool Pointer serves as helpful tool.
PBIS Strategy #17: Celebrate Good Behavior.
When students feel valued for what they do right, it builds momentum for confidence, connection, & growth.
A little joy goes a long way in shaping positive school culture.
Thanks to Josh Preece for the reminder this St. Patty’s Day.

As an educator, you're skilled at navigating change. Remember when the day looks different than expected, allowing space, rather than rushing to fill it, can be its own form of care.
This year reminded us of what’s possible when caring adults work together to create enriching, supportive schools for every learner. Thank you for the dedication you bring to your classrooms, buildings, and teams. Happy holidays!
We were excited to partner with the @ESCLC to host the Career Readiness Pathways Network, where Dave Miller and @MrSearight guided educators in exploring how thoughtful pathway design can connect learning to opportunity and purpose for every student.
Over the past two days, the #CareerPathwaysExpo reminded us how powerful it is when students can see and explore different pathways for their future.
We were proud to support a venture where education and industry intersect to inspire the next generation.

The K-12 Literacy Network launched with a rich conversation on literacy practices and the I-MTSS framework. With Sarah Marsden’s guidance, educators connected state updates to classroom realities, gaining strategies to strengthen support for all learners.
At @NorthPointESC's Administrative Retreat, 300+ school leaders leaned into shared challenges and possibilities. Their commitment to students was evident in every breakout and hallway conversation. We’re thankful to have been part of a day rooted in service and solutions.
Thank you to all who attended the breakout session led by Kristin Fazio and Melissa Wagner at the Annual @Ohio_CEC Summer Conference. It was great to meet change-makers from across the state and engage in dialogue that will continue to inspire progress in exceptional education.
Stronger family engagement leads to better outcomes for students with disabilities. At the @Ohio_CEC conference on June 6, @SSTregion2's Kristin Fazio and Melissa Wagner will discuss techniques to make IEP meetings more inclusive, collaborative, and empowering for families.
We're grateful to @SITG_Browns and the @OHEducation for hosting #AttendOhio! @SuptFrancoGallo and @SSTregion2's Josh Preece shared low-cost, high-impact attendance strategies. Thanks to all who continue this vital work to help students stay, learn, and grow.
In his book, 'Leadership Through Relationships', @PaulKishEdu makes a clear case: relationships are the foundation of thriving schools. His talk today at the @ESCLC left leaders with concrete tools to build connections, strengthen culture, and lead with clarity and compassion.
