Educators and students at our partner school, Terminal Park Elementary, are opening their doors to give you a firsthand look at the impact of the BELONG Partners approach in their community.

During our 90-minute tour you will:
-Observe a problem-solving class meeting
-Connect with school staff
-Hear directly from a panel of students

As a parent at one of our partner schools put it:
"After experiencing the tour, I believe this model should be the standard all across the board, for every school”
-Jennifer Morrissey

What looks like defiance, aggression, or disengagement is often a nervous system working to create a sense of control and safety.

For adults: Watch our full Building Regulated Schools video to learn more about creating a culture of regulation in your school.

For students: Try our 4 follow-along regulation videos together in your classroom this week—short, simple strategies students can use to help regulate their nervous systems.

This is what it looks like to create a culture of regulation at your school—a place where the whole community supports one another in understanding and caring for their whole selves, rather than leaving that work up to each individual.
