Handle with Care: Managing Difficult Situations in Schools with Dignity and Respect
In Handle with Care, authors Jimmy Casas and Joy Kelly examine a variety of difficult school-related situations, both in and out of the classroom. In schools across the country, educators at every level are faced with delicate, challenging situations that require leadership skills and insights in order to produce favorable outcomes for students and staff. This book provides educators with insights into a variety of difficult-to-handle situations and scenarios that educators can relate to and may have experienced themselves. Well-intentioned, but inadequate, human responses are identified and practical ideas for handling delicate situations with dignity and respect are provided. This book will help educators develop tools and techniques to help students and staff emerge from missteps more self-aware, feeling valued, and able to move forward.
In this book, you will learn:
· What it takes to cultivate a school culture in which every student and staff member feels seen and heard.
· How to treat student and staff missteps as opportunities for teaching and learning based on dignity and respect.
· How to build leadership capacity and Culturize school pride.
· The value of student-centered classrooms and school-related programs.
