Addressing everyday suffering in schools through compassion
Compassion and dignity provide an essential framework for building caring and inclusive schools. Many books focus on what teachers can do as individuals; Creating Compassionate Change in School Communities is different. This book focuses both on how educators can cultivate compassion within themselves and lead together to cultivate humanizing school environments. Teachers, librarians, counselors, resource specialists, mental health professionals, and social workers who are working to create conditions for compassion and dignity in schools are all leaders who can impact change. Offering concrete evidence and case studies that showcase the power of compassion to create flourishing school communities and rejuvenate education, this book will help all educators better serve K-12 students with school cultures that promote healing. Compassion can be cultivated and dignity can be affirmed, and leaders need skillful means to do so-tools and practices that can help them develop compassion for themselves and others and see their own dignity and that of others.
"This important book builds on a simple but radical premise: 'Our schools today need to become spaces of healing' for students, parents and families, and educators themselves. If we acted on that premise-as the authors of this book urge and equip us to do-American education would be transformed. We would no longer focus single-mindedly on conveying information and developing cognitive skills. Instead we would attend to the development of whole persons and to the well-being of their communities. That's an uphill task to say the least, but this well-researched book gives us the motive and means to make that journey."
-PARKER J. PALMER, author of The Courage to Teach, A Hidden Wholeness, and Healing the Heart of Democracy
