Beyond Behavior: Building Belonging, Trust, and Culturally Responsive Classrooms
Join the Student and Early Career Committee, in collaboration with the Diversity Committee, for an engaging Town Hall focused on understanding student behavior through culturally responsive, trauma-informed, and inclusive practices.
This collaborative event will bring together educators, students, and early career professionals to explore how culture, lived experiences, trauma, and a sense of belonging influence student behavior and educational outcomes. Through expert perspectives and meaningful discussion, participants will gain valuable insights and practical strategies to strengthen relationships, foster inclusive learning environments, and support diverse learners, including students with disabilities.
Featured Speakers and Topics:
- Dr. Nikita McCree: Understanding Behavior Through a Culturally Responsive Lens
- Mrs. Nicole Greene: Using a Trauma-Informed Lens to Strengthen the School-to-Home Connection, and IEPs and the School-to-Prison Pipeline
- Dr. LaSheba Hilliard: Belonging Before Behavior: Creating Inclusive Classrooms for Diverse Learners
Together, we will examine how educators can move beyond traditional approaches to behavior management and embrace practices rooted in equity, empathy, collaboration, and belonging.
Join us for an opportunity to learn, reflect, and engage in conversations that inspire positive change for all learners!
