TEACHERS are the real “Game Changers.”

Teachers demonstrate limitless game changing strategies each day. Examples include the way they make learning engaging, are tuned in to student needs, continuously improve through professional learning, and bridge learning for parents. This year, the Title I Conference will provide additional strategies and resources teachers can use to enhance their “Game Changing” strategies.

Restorative practices offer a powerful framework for supporting students with behavioral issues, acknowledging the diverse challenges and backgrounds they face. As a middle school student, Willie Spears received over fifty reversals for behavior issues. He later became an administrator in charge of behavioral issues in several Title One Schools in Florida, Georgia and Alabama where he used the proven method of restorative practices. Through this approach, teachers can cultivate a culture of empathy, accountability, and proactive problem-solving in the classroom. By identifying students' unique needs and providing targeted support, educators can foster a positive school environment where all learners feel respected and valued. Embracing restorative practices not only transforms disciplinary responses but also nurtures a sense of belonging and community among students, empowering them to overcome obstacles and thrive academically and socially.
