How do you create and sustain an award-winning school culture?
That was the focus of PBIS Rewards’ webinar featuring Hans and Jennifer Appel of Enterprise Middle School in West Richland, Washington. The Appels are educators, authors, and school culture leaders who are deeply committed to the building of positive school culture.
As part of PBISCon20, the Appels were slated to present an in-depth look at how Enterprise has built a strong, positive school culture through a combination of PBIS, SEL, and servant leadership. Though we had to cancel the conference for 2020 (look for us in 2021!), we knew we wanted them to be a part of our PBISCon20 webinar series!
In this webinar, Hans and Jennifer cover such topics as:
- “House rules” of character, excellence, and community
- Teaching with intentionality
- Inspiring others to discover and develop their joy
- Teaching servant leadership
- Using a common language in everything throughout the school
- Training students to be leaders
- Providing experiential activities to help students practice servant leadership
- Boosting staff morale
- Adapting for virtual learning
- Funding
- …and more!
The Appels are part of the Teach Better team at Enterprise and operate the Award-Winning Culture website. Enterprise also uses the Character Strong curriculum as part of their PBIS initiative. Both Hans and Jennifer had plenty to share during this hour-long webinar – and they only touched on a portion of their usual presentation!
