Do you want to be proactive about preventing behavioral challenges for our youngest learners? Special Education Administrators, Principals and Preschool Coordinators are Invited to a Lunch and Learn Session Designed to Collaborate with the SERESC Systems Team to share ideas and help shape a stress-management professional Development series designed for school staff.
Objective: Gather perspectives from attendees to inform the purpose and design of a potential Spring 2026 professional learning series.
Description: The SERESC Team will provide proposed brief goals and descriptions of a potential upcoming collaborative learning series. Participants will provide feedback as to the viability, feasibility, and utility of the proposed professional learning series.
Proposed Foundational Series Themes:
- Connection before correction
- Behavior as Communication (student behavior and staff behavior)
- Components of a ‘Stress Story’
- Supporting well-regulated and self-aware adults
- Regulation-supportive culture
- Supporting young learner transitions – emphasizing skill-building and teacher modeling.
- Building classroom, school, and district mindsets and cultures that reduce reliance on reactionary student placement changes.
