Support for Schools
Peaceful Schools NC is not a one-size fits all program. We do not have a packaged product that we swoop in to administer. We believe that peace comes from within communities and that it is the members of the community who hold the power to make a change. We also do not work with our schools in isolation. The Peaceful Schools NC network is a supportive learning community. Teachers visit one another’s schools. We build connections between school leaders. We generate new ideas via think tanks tackling a common challenge. Our work becomes stronger with each school that becomes involved.
What We Offer
We work to empower schools to actively create and sustain a positive school climate. Through an individualized approach, we offer consultation, professional development, and ongoing resources for teachers, administrators, students, staff, and parents. Our work with schools often includes:
Workshops for teachers throughout the year
Consulting and planning with administrative teams
Parent education nights
Programs for students
School climate surveys
Participation in Student Day (returning soon!)
New-teacher orientation and training
Ongoing consulting and support as needed
Discounted fees to attend our biennial conference
A supportive network of schools working together to support each other in this work
“They understood our school and roles in a way that made the training relatable, engaging, and valuable.”

How do we begin?
Contact us to arrange a free two-hour consultation to consider how we might be of service. After listening to the specific needs of your school community, we collaboratively create an individualized proposal to fit your needs.
“Relationship building is essential.”
