• Reinforce social-emotional skills by intentionally embedding them into classroom instruction, routines, and daily interactions with students.
• Build strong, trusting relationships with students and actively communicate and partner with families to support student success
• Center inclusive, culturally responsive practices that affirm students' identities and promote belonging and high expectations for all
