NASP Guidance for Reinforcing Safe, Supportive and Positive School Environments for All Students

Eric Rossen, PhD, NCSP 11/11/166:00 AM

Following the election, many reports from schools reflected fear and anxiety among students and families about the potential for deportation. Other feared that the outcome gave a license to some to bully minorities or marginalized members within the community. Still others reported overt bullying and victimization.

In response, the National Association of School Psychologists (NASP) put out guidance for schools, educators, and any adult working with children experiencing (or re-experiencing) stress.

Thank you for sharing this, Eric. My hearts go out to those that are working with youth - many of whom are soaking up the rhetoric being shared on social media and are confused and fearful. And I encourage those working with youth to take care of yourselves - I share a letter that a Principal shared with her staff the day after the election as an example of taking care of our students and school staff.
