Reduce Teacher Turnover!
The Transformational Leader Toolkit is a resource for school administrators and leadership teams to provide powerful staff development focused on improving student connectedness and teacher-student relationships.

Transform Your School Culture
Our Leader’s Toolkit is designed to help school leadership teams transform school culture. Leaders and administrators use the toolkit to create a shift in perspective with teachers and staff and help them build caring relationships with students that motivate and inspire trust.

Resources to Build Capacity in Forming Relationships
This toolkit can provide valuable resources for administrators to build capacity with staff through a series of pre-built workshops that can be employed as part of:

A school improvement plan
Team discussions
Staff meetings
PLCs
Professional development

Not Just the “Why” of Relationships but the “How”
The pandemic has left us all more aware of the importance of creating caring relationships with our students. However, much has been said about the “why” of building relationships in the classroom, but rarely do we hear about the “how.” This toolkit provides practical strategies that school leaders can share with their teams and immediately put into practice to begin improving those student connections and shifting school culture.
