Best Practices Forum: How to Get What YOU Need From Your Students with Sugar, Honey
and Kindness

Presented By: Barbara Karp and Heather Ronco
Target Audience: All Staff

Our experience in and out of education reveals that we often get more of what we want with kindness and relationship
building rather than sternness and authoritarianism. For this best practices forum, we ask that you share your tips and tricks
that work for you to get students to engage/re-engage and ultimately, to succeed. Please bring your best ideas to the forum
so we can all learn from each other.
