District leaders face the critical task of developing sustainable, system-wide approaches to student support. This interactive workshop will equip you with actionable frameworks and evidence-based strategies to build comprehensive mental health support systems that scale across your schools. Drawing from successful district case studies, we'll examine how to allocate resources effectively, build internal capacity, and create measurable outcomes that demonstrate impact on both student well-being and academic achievement.
- Explore strategies for fostering a culture of shared responsibility within your school system to promote student emotional well-being and academic success.
- Identify effective methods for supporting teachers in strengthening classroom practices and recognizing when students may need more intensive mental health interventions using an MTSS framework.
- Learn effective approaches for engaging parents and caregivers as active partners in supporting and enhancing student mental health and well-being
