📣 Our own Amanda Ensor was at #NSPRA 2026. One line from keynote speaker Mariana Atencio stuck with her: trust is hard to earn, easy to lose, and impossible to fake.

Same principle we live by — just applied to families.

📚 Enrollment season isn't over in July. Families are still deciding if a district feels like the right fit, and trust built now shapes reputation (and enrollment) later.

"If the vegetables don't grow, you don't blame the vegetables."

It was one of our favorite takeaways from IEL's CSxFE Conference: 
When engagement falls short, examine the conditions—not the families.
