Welcome to Part 9 of a special series: "Leading Schools in a Time of Crisis." In these conversations, we will probe how educators are helping their schools and communities pivot due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Because these educators are very busy, we've limited these conversations to about 15 minutes.

So, how do educators effectively lead change during a crisis? For Chula Vista Elementary S.D. educators Toni Faddis Ed.D and Giulia Longo, it's all about nurturing relationships with students and parents.
