Understanding Culture: Intent vs. Impact
Wednesday May 27, 2026 10:00am - 11:30am CDT
Room 318
What if your best intentions are still missing the mark?
In this engaging, eye-opening session, you’ll explore how your words and actions are truly experienced—and how small shifts can make a big difference in creating a space where everyone feels seen, respected, and valued.
Through real-life scenarios and practical strategies, you’ll learn how to communicate with intention, avoid unintentional harm, and respond with confidence and empathy when it matters most.
You’ll walk away with:
  • Simple tools to think before you speak
  • Strategies to repair harm and build trust
  • Language that strengthens connection and belonging
Don’t miss this opportunity to grow your impact and help create a community in your classroom where everyone belongs.
