Common Mistakes Making it cute Negatively stated Connecting with school mascot if it doesn t connect Combing with other initiatives Making it too difficult Not able to compromise or come to a consensus (too many cooks in the kitchen) Not getting staff and student input Not looking at your data

Fair Process for Buy-In People are happier, more cooperative and productive, and more likely to make positive changes in behavior when those in authority do things with them, rather than to them or for them."
Empowering Staff and Students How do we want to treat each other? What s expected of me? And why?
