It is important to support and take care of your teachers' well-being! During this 3-hour training, we will explore how you can do your part to help support teachers so they can be their best with the children.

Do you cringe when the word creativity is mentioned? You are sitting in a workshop and the facilitator says, “Now you get to be creative and draw what this looks like to you”. What does being creative mean? How can you practice and expand your creative skills on the job and in life? During this 3-hour Ohio-approved workshop, participants will explore what creativity can look like in a variety of environments. We will discuss the three components of creativity and ten attributes of highly creative people. Participants will explore ways to use creative thinking to adapt activities and situations. Everyone is creative, we just have to discover how we can use our creativity. Join this session to uncover your creative juices!

During this 7-part virtual series, participants will examine the Golden Rules of Leadership, as defined by John C. Maxwell. Continuous learning and growing are a part of the leadership process.
