Research consistently shows that joy in schools is not simply a "nice-to-have" but an essential part of a thriving educational environment. In this workshop, participants will explore how to create a school culture that fosters positive, productive spaces where all members—students, staff, and faculty—can flourish. Attendees will delve into strategies for showing and receiving gratitude, celebrating points of pride and student success, and developing meaningful relationships with colleagues rooted in mutual belief and support. Participants will also be encouraged to challenge their own practices, take risks, and share both successes and setbacks, fostering a culture of learning and growth. Together, we will explore the power of humor to combat stress, discover ways to embrace new opportunities for connection, and learn practical approaches for building a joyful and supportive community. Join us in transforming our school culture by connecting with one another and embracing the power of joy!
