For schools.

A school can care about belonging and still run on pressure. A school can want repair and still reach for punishment. We work with schools ready to practice liberated learning.

What schools are carrying

Behavior pressure. Teacher strain. Family tension. Attendance concerns. Zero-tolerance referrals that remove a kid from the room instead of repairing what happened in it. Too many demands and not enough time to rebuild the ground underneath them. The role of school leader is often built to hold more than one person should. The work has to be shared.

What the research says

The RAND Corporation's 2026 State of the American Teacher survey found that 55 percent of K-12 public school teachers reported frequent job-related stress. Among college-educated working adults in other jobs, the figure was 34 percent. Teachers have reported more stress than college-educated adults in other jobs every year since 2021.

Eighteen percent of teachers said they were likely to leave their current job by the end of the 2025-26 school year. Managing student behavior was the source of stress they named most often, at 52 percent.

For a child, that means the adult in the room is carrying more strain than other working adults, and the source teachers name most often is responding to children's behavior. That is why our work centers daily rhythms for co-regulation, repair when harm happens, movement, and emotional skill building.

Grounded adults liberate their teaching. We guide experiences that shift how we learn within our bodies.

What we help strengthen

  • School climate
  • Relational trust
  • Restorative practice
  • Adult steadiness in moments of intensity
