Check the Pulse: Let's Make Sure Students Are Thriving!

First semester is nearly over and you might be wondering if your greatest efforts to support students have made an impact. Can you say your students are thriving? Do they think they’re thriving? If you’re not sure how to answer that question, join author, school counselor, and therapist, Phyllis Fagell, and Intellispark co-founder, Patricia Gagnon, for a refreshing discussion around the state of students today and what efforts appear to be helping them thrive.

We’ll begin by self-assessing our perceptions of how students are doing today. Phyllis will then share anecdata around what we are doing to support students and what seems to be working. She’ll share a range of strategies around small things we can and should be doing and she’ll provide tools to help educators and students reframe their perspectives on what it means to be thriving so that they can all seize upon the learning opportunities surely to come over the horizon in 2026. If you’re looking to reset and prepare to re-engage in the new year, join us!
