Find out from the principal who was at the center of the "Paper Tigers" documentary what it means to be a trauma-informed school. Under Jim Sporleder’s leadership in collaboration with community partners, Lincoln High School became a “Trauma Informed” school, gaining national attention due to a dramatic drop in out of school suspensions, increased graduation rates and the number of students going on to post-secondary education. In this presentation, Jim will walk the participants through a brief overview of the impact of Adverse Childhood Experiences, and how toxic stress impacts student learning and behavior. Participants will be introduced to what it means to be a Trauma-Informed School and how a trauma responsive approach is best practice for all students.
