A UNIQUE VIEW OF UNNECESSARY STUDENT STRESS
IN JUST 2 WEEKS, YOU CAN ATTEND THIS YEAR'S virtual Regional Symposium, which will focus on school-based expectations that can be changed as a way to address student mental health issues. It is our responsibility as education leaders to conceive of ways to help students bring more balance to their lives without sacrificing rigor. Stressbusters: Flexibility in the Learning Environment will be especially elucidating about ways that we can help lift some of the burden off of our students (so make sure to ask you district clerk to sign you up to attend).
