Leading school change is a big lift, especially when trying to implement approaches that are deeply connected to mind-set and personal beliefs about what is and is not an educator's "job.” In this follow up to "A Holistic Approach to Equity-Centered, SEL-Based Restorative Whole School Change” we will explore a framework for implementation based on Improvement Science, Street Data and Emergent Strategies philosophies and processes. Having established basic understanding of this framework, participants will collaborate to build strategic plans based on this framework and resources offered last time. Time will be given for independent work time, collaboration, and Q & A and participants will leave with tangible steps to take personally and organizationally to begin change work in their schools. Day 2 will be devoted to application and collaboration of the work Annie O'Shaughnessy shares *Breakfast and Lunch is included on both days.
