Building Educator Capacity with CESA 2

Mental health is more important than ever during these times of isolation and lack of social interactions. Dr. Valerie Schmitz from CESA 2 and Katie Curran, MAPP, the founder of Proof Positive (www.proofpositive.org), discuss best practices to maintain positivity and happiness at both school and home. Hear about the guiding method of PERMA for changing you mindset to remember gratitude, engagement, and happiness!  

Equity in our schools is one of our top priorities. It starts with examining conscious and unconscious biases we may have and what we can do to change for the better. Join consultants Steven Mijajlovic and Mary Jo Ziegler from CESA 2 and David M. Quinn, an assistant professor of education at the Rossier School of Education, as they discuss his research and his top findings and recommendations to reduce racial bias in our grading.
