Open Doors: Create a Healthy School Climate - United Way
Imagine a place where you can't wait to go every day - where you feel safe, connected, supported and excited about learning. What does it take for schools in your community to be like this? In the third webinar of the 2019 Attendance Awareness Campaign, our speakers share school-wide strategies to create an engaging, healthy school climate that supports everyone in the school building. Whether it's in an elementary or secondary setting, when school staff work together to increase students' and families' sense of belonging, safety and connection to school, and support their physical and emotional health, they can motivate kids to attend even when life is challenging.
