Say hello to the newest members of our team 👋🏾 (they don't do paperwork, but they've got excellent taste in capes).

We've had these two tucked away for a while, and it's time they officially joined the socials. Meet Professor Wrinkle 🎓 and Captain Cortex 🦸🏾, the Career Pathway Brainz!

School is officially back in session, and that means we have teacher training on the brain... no pun intended. We want our educators and the learners they serve set up for success, which means taking a step back and revisiting our larger goals in education. We know, we know—we hear it all the time—who has time for that?? But here at Dramatic Results, we believe you have to slow down in order to move fast.

These little Brainz are here to talk about career pathways, and wowie are they knowledgeable, starting with why creative thinking is the skill employers want most right now.

Follow along to meet the rest of the crew, and find out what we believe is at the core of future-ready student learning.

Missed our latest newsletter? This issue is about why creating belonging can't wait for next year. The time is now!

"I dreamed about a culture of belonging. I still dream that dream." — bell hooks

Our team leads trainings that spark innovation, communication, and collaboration in the workplace, so schools and organizations can carry that same energy into their communities and the students they serve.

Read the full issue to see how that played out for Jayson, a student in our summer programming who was struggling to connect.

Last week we brought Design for Belonging to the team at Bright Star Schools 🫱🏿‍🫲🏽 Educators walked away with tools that would give students real choice.

Whenever we deliver a training, we love to reflect with attendees on their intentions for the year. It’s not just about what activities you’re planning but how you want to show up. That’s what we care about most. Process over product, for kids and adults alike. 🤔

Heading into the new year, belonging shouldn’t be an afterthought for schools. ‼️ It should be the starting point.❣️

If you’re thinking about what that could look like for your team, let’s talk. ☎️

We couldn’t be more excited about growing the 🎉

Please join us in welcoming — Rachel Huguet (left), Independent Consultant; Lisa Barbato (center), HR Business Partner at Netflix; and Andrew Watson (right), Visual Arts Coordinator for Prince William County Public Schools — to our Board of Directors!

Three different fields, one shared instinct: show up for work that matters.

As we look ahead at how to differentiate and expand what we do here at Dramatic Results, we wanted people whose professional, philanthropic, and personal experiences would set us up for success. All three of these amazing humans do just that.

As a diversified Board we’re feeling confident about the exploration ahead. This is just the start. More exciting announcements are coming soon, so make sure you’re signed up for our newsletter… you won’t want to miss what’s next.

Welcome to the team 🤝🏾 #

1 in 8 teaching positions in the U.S. right now are either vacant, or filled by someone who isn’t fully certified for the job. 📉 That’s more than 425,000 positions nationwide, per the Learning Policy Institute’s 2026 update.

Filling those spots isn’t simple. We know teachers are superheroes, saving the day for scholars day in and day out. 🦸🏽 But even superheroes need support.

This is why we build our programs the way we do. Real training. Real planning time. A real co-teaching model. Not because it’s a nice extra, but because under-supported teachers are exactly how classrooms end up as a statistic like this one.

We can’t fix a national shortage alone. 🤝🏽 But we can grow the network of people who show up for educators alongside us. Share this post. Collaborate with us. Connect us with someone in your community doing this work.

Together we rise. ✊🏽

Creating spaces of belonging for students starts with the adults in the room modeling what real relationships look like. That’s a big part of why we love our partnership with Walnut Valley USD 👏🏽 It started years ago at a conference (shout out to CA STEAM Initiatives for bringing educators together! 🎤), but it’s never just been about the programming. The collaboration is rooted in empathy 💛

We started with 2 elementary schools, then expanded to all 9 in 2018. This year will mark year 9 in every one of those schools, with more than 7,000 2nd graders inspired together 📈 We started before the pandemic, kept showing up during it, and adapted the program on the other side.

“Dramatic Results provides a great opportunity for students to learn foundational skills for acting. Students learn how to express themselves through the use of their bodies and voice. The Teaching Artists provide a positive environment where students learn to work cooperatively with their peers.” — Ms. Sandhu, Walnut Elementary

Ten years. Over 7,000 students. Thank you for trusting us 🙏🏾

26 days until school starts back up! Our team's already gearing up!

Here's something we don't say often—when you give to Dramatic Results, you're not just funding a lesson. You're funding the training, the planning time, and the co-teaching model that makes our Teaching Artists effective once they're in the classroom, before a single student ever picks up a pencil 🎨 or steps on stage 🎬 .

Everyone wants their donation to go straight to kids. And we get that. But well-trained, well-supported educators are what makes a program sustainable, and sustainability is what makes a program great and fun! For everyone in the room.

So this Summer, invest in the people doing the work. We're passionate about serving students, and we know what it takes to do it well.

“STEAM” is a word we use constantly at Dramatic Results, and it means something different depending on who you ask. Some partners love it. Some of our own staff and Board members have pushed back on it. We’ve heard everything from genuine enthusiasm, to eye-rolls at the jargon🫣, to real skepticism about whether the acronym does more for a grant application than it does for a learner. We’ve been to every kind of STEM/STEAM/STREAM conference there is, and we’ve debated rebranding our own programs more than once.

Here’s what we keep coming back to, regardless of what we call it: when students go through our STEAM+ Theatre program (**😉name change pending🤨**), educators report jumps in 21st-century skills—critical thinking up 21%, teamwork up 17%, communication up 21%. Whatever label you put on it, we believe arts integration is the entry point that makes STEM stick.

So we’re curious... 🤔does the term “STEAM” help, or does it get in the way?
