Reflect, Restore & Renew For Academic Leaders: Moving Forward, Not Just Moving On
Course Dates: June 7 - 25, 2021; July 12 - 30, 2021

When the 2021–22 school year opens, administrators will need to be energized, optimistic, and strategic. Creative leaders will seek to move forward to a new and better version of their school program, not just return to what was. Academic leaders will need to reflect on their experiences over the last two years to identify their professional strengths and needs. Only then can leaders understand how multiple constituencies may have struggled and where they have thrived so that they can encourage colleagues and faculty to pause and engage in a different set of three R’s: reflect, restore, and renew.  By recognizing that each community member has a unique set of perspectives, experiences, and coping strategies leaders can encourage moving forward together, united in purpose and informed by the values embedded in their mission and academic philosophy.

Online Courses for Teachers

​​Beginning June 1

Reflect, Restore & Renew For Teachers: Moving Forward, Not Just Moving On
Course Dates: June 1 - 11, 2021; June 14 - 25, 2021;  July 12 - 23, 2021; ​August 2 - 13, 2021

The last two school years have been disrupted beyond what many of us could have imagined. Teachers have adjusted, pivoted, learned new tools, adjusted again, re-pivoted, and then learned still more new tools. This summer is time to pause and engage in a different set of three R’s: reflect, restore, and renew. This course will guide teachers in finding equanimity through exploring strengths in preparation for moving ahead to another school year with a strong, sustainable vision, not “back to normal.”

It is not possible to individually enroll for this course. Instead, a school must enroll an entire divisional faculty for the course. The price is varied depending on the size of the participating division. Please contact Sarah Hanawald, Assistant Head of School for Professional Development, for more information and pricing. ​
