There really isn’t an excuse for not doing what’s best for kids. A school with a positive culture faces the problem and then asks, “Now what?”

🔸A student is chronically absent?
Now what?
🔹A student isn’t achieving?
Now what?
🔸A student is dysregulated?
Now what?
🔹A student seeks negative attention? Now what?

Culture is continuing the conversation rather than letting the excuse be the reason to end it.

These are good tips. Also, ensure you communicate with your child’s educators to help with the transition and plan.

@ONTSpecialNeeds Flexible seating should be an option for every classroom however it is usually only an option for teachers who can afford it #necessaryforsomegoodforall

[Antonietta Holmes @Antonie21622315]

Wait lists for child care and before & after school programs are long. This impacts parents ability to work & increases stress on families. Workforce shortage is a big reason why. Until wages are addressed, nothing will change!!What are both the federal & provincial govt doing?
