About this Event
Conference Date:
June 12th and 13th, 2025 from 8:30 to 5:30
Why this course?
The educational setting is becoming more challenging. Children are coming into our schools without the self-regulation to manage their behavior, sit quietly through a lesson, or follow the educator's directions. Educators are overwhelmed by the enormity of their responsibilities, the constant disruptions and chaos that ruin their best-laid plans, and feeling the pressure to fix it all.
Course Description
In this two-day conference, we will explore personal needs, priorities, emotional triggers, and the roadblocks that get in the way of caring for ourselves and setting appropriate boundaries with our students. Understanding ourselves helps us set reasonable expectations for our students, establish healthy boundaries, and build strong relationships and teams. This self-awareness prevents us from taking student behavior personally, allowing us to connect in ways that support student healing and create a fun, caring school environment. We will review Healing Discipline Strategies and teach additional techniques for managing student behavior. Participants will be able to create Healing Discipline Behavior Plans they can immediately implement in their classrooms.
This class is a continuation of our first course: "Healing Discipline: Finding Joy in Working with Challenging Students." While it is helpful to have taken our first course before this one, it is not required. We understand that everyone's schedule is different, so if you want to take our first course, you can see if we have a live class available or register for the class on demand, providing you with the flexibility to learn at your own pace and convenience.
