Publisher's Synopsis
"We live in an epidemic of student trauma. Symptoms of traumatic stress are present in nearly two-thirds of students. Given this reality, it's imperative that every school is equipped to thoughtfully respond to trauma and high-stress events. Navigating the Unexpected: A School Leader's Guide for Trauma-Response Teams by Geri Parscale and Darcy Kraus guides school leaders and administrators in designing their own Dynamic Problem-Solving Team so they can adequately prepare their staff to handle crises and trauma in all their manifestations. With clearly defined action steps, templates, reflection questions, and other resources in each chapter, leaders will build a community that delivers meaningful support to their most vulnerable students"--.
