Teaching can be a deeply rewarding profession. In our current climate, however, it's understandable that teachers across the country feel as though the burdens are beginning to outweigh the benefits. Recent research shows us that teachers are burning out at higher rates than any other industry. Valor's Balance Over Burnout Teacher Wellbeing Workshop supports teachers with research-backed skills for resilience, connection to peers to combat isolation, and time away from their daily pressures to reconnect with their purpose and values. Invest in your irreplaceable teachers and show your gratitude by giving them the gift of Balance Over Burnout. #TreatATeacher Register Here for the workshop on Dec 11-13: https://lnkd.in/etXeUHB4

Last week was the final training for our dear Cohort 6 schools! They're on their way to certification this Spring and will soon be in our growing crew of Certified Powered by Compass Schools. We couldn't be more proud of this group of educators. They have tirelessly put in the work and dedication to implement Compass as a core component of their school community. The stories of growth and connection we hear from their schools are what make it all worth it. Until next time, friends!

Getting to work with incredible leaders like Kirsten Carr at Navigator Schools is such a benefit to our work in sharing the Compass Model with other schools. She has been a force for her leaders, teachers, and students - constantly pushing the boundaries of what's expected and what's possible for their community. We are proud to call you our partner and friend, Kirsten Carr.
Since the shooting tragedy at the Gilroy Garlic Festival in 2019, I've been consciously determined to take advantage of every opportunity given to me and for the most part, have lived up to this promise to myself. One of these opportunities, I highly recommend to any educational leader who has the chance, is the Compass in Leadership Program. I tell anyone who asks how much this fellowship has meant to me the past 17 months...both the content and the cohort I am in. We are given the time and space to learn about ourselves (regardless of where you are as a leader), how this impacts your leadership style, and are surrounded by kind, brilliant, caring leaders in this important space. I can't say enough positive things about Compass in Leadership, a Valor program and urge you to reach out to Taryn Hill Sprayberry, Sara Carlson Striegel or Kait Troy today to learn more. Sara & Kait have been more than facilitators...they have become friends and family. #leadershipisajourney

Proud of you, Luke Savidge, Ed.S!
Two years ago my small team and I, plus Lisa Stone from Valor Collegiate Academies set out to bring Circle to our middle school campus in Phoenix, Arizona. Each week, our kiddos and staff explore who they are, what makes them unique, and have the chance to share that with our community in Circle. The work hasn’t been easy, but it is worth it. Today we wrapped up our last training in Nashville and my bucket is full of gratitude for the work of this team, and hope for our kiddos who have the chance to understand their deep value and worth on a weekly basis.
