School Climate Improvement Action Guides
The School Climate Improvement Action Guides are designed to provide district leaders, school leaders, instructional staff, noninstructional staff, families, students, and community partners with action steps on how to support school climate improvements; tips on what it looks like when it is being done well and what pitfalls to avoid; and questions to ask to engage in the school climate improvement process.*
The School Climate Improvement Action Guides are one set of materials, among a diverse collection of tools within the School Climate Improvement Resource Package, commissioned by the Department of Education Office of Safe and Healthy Students.
