This is so true! Connection through a relationship with a caring adult allows our students to feel safe and be the best they can be!

Great morning with staff from Dry Ridge Elementary School as Kelly and Lyndsey Mayberry presented on trauma-informed behavior interventions. Then had amazing discussions about the trauma-informed care plan for Grant County School District! #ConnectGrowServe

Spent the morning on Friday with the amazing staff from NKCES-RSP ! Had the privilege to present about trauma and trauma-informed practices. NKY students are lucky to have these caring adults on their side! #ConnectGrowServe

Awesome reading about success in other countries. Having a trauma informed school and trauma informed behavior policies work! My hope is we can learn from so many great examples and do what is best for ALL students!

So glad I was able to get in some self-care this weekend! Spent a couple days with my gorgeous wife as we celebrated 16 years of marriage. Grammie along with aunt Roni and Tiffy took the kids for us. I am not sure the kids wanted us to pick them up! Take care of yourself!
