Building a culture of care for students and adults
A nurturing, caring school environment is essential for school improvement and student motivation. In this book, Douglas Reeves and Robert Eaker bring the importance of a caring environment to the forefront of school transformation efforts. They identify who is responsible for shaping school communities, what qualities are vital for them to exhibit, and what educational leaders and practitioners can do to promote more caring for all.
K–12 leaders, administrators, policymakers, and teacher leaders will:
- Understand the direct impacts of care and connection on student motivation and learning
- Support and empower parents in their efforts to nurture children’s growth and education
- Build collaborative teaching teams to encourage supportive professional development
- Implement regular feedback to maintain commitment to improved caring practices
- Inspire broader cultural changes among districts, communities, and national leadership
