When the Whole Child Initiative was launched, we set out to support the dynamic work and stellar commitment of our KIPP Chicago educators and staff. Post-pandemic, the needs of our children have evolved, and our teachers have adapted to students’ needs. With their loving adjustments, the needs of teachers have also evolved.
To better understand what supports currently matter most to teachers, we have launched our annual Staff Wellness Survey. Based on the survey results, we will design our monthly winter and spring workshops that offer camaraderie, fun, and relief.
