Braelinn Online Learning

This online book study is intended to provide an interesting perspective on How to Deal with Difficult Parents while providing the opportunity for teachers and parapros to have conversation about the differences in parenting styles. We have noticed a distinct difference in the styles of parents now as compared to the 1950s and 1960s. The book and the online conversation will give teaching staff ideas of how they might better handle a difficult situation. Hopefully, it will encourage us to approach these situations with a different perspective and a different attitude.

As a follow-up to the last online book study, Whatever It Takes, we will now read Reculturing Schools to Become Professional Learning Communities. Participants will read a chapter, respond to a question about the reading, and then respond to another member of their collegial group. The last session will be a discussion about steps we need to take at Braelinn to become a more cohesive PLC.

The goal of this class is to increase awareness of other interventions we might put in place to better support students.  We want to start conversations to find ways to better meet the needs of individual students.
