    Understanding the Role of Stress and Trauma in Education Today

    Every educator has faced moments when a student’s behavior leaves them feeling confused, frustrated, or at a loss. Whether it’s a student shutting down, lashing out, or reacting in ways that don’t “fit” their age or environment, the question remains: What’s really going on—and how can I help? This webinar is designed to answer that question in a way that’s grounded in brain science and filled with practical, usable tools. You’ll be introduced to the Neurosequential Model in Education (NME)—a powerful framework developed by Dr. Bruce Perry that helps educators understand student behavior through the lens of brain development, stress response, and regulation. Rather than offering one-size-fits-all strategies, NME empowers educators to see behavior differently—as communication, as adaptation, and as an invitation to connect. You’ll discover how even the most challenging moments can become opportunities to build trust, support regulation, and foster resilience. Through stories, examples, and a lively panel conversation, we’ll explore how to support students whose emotional responses seem out of sync with expectations, how to help students regulate before we reason with them, and how understanding “state-dependent functioning” can completely change the way we approach learning and discipline. Whether you’re a classroom teacher, administrator, counselor, or support staff member, this conversation will meet you where you are. You’ll leave with a renewed sense of hope, practical strategies for your very next tough moment, and a deeper understanding of how to support both students and yourself in the process.
