Abstract:

The Whole Child Framework with intentional structures is helping us build a system where students find joy in learning and educators call upon a predictable system to address common concerns. Joy is not elusive or mysterious; it simply needs to be prioritized. Assessing the barriers to joy in a learning community is specific, and is something each school will need to do on their own. However, once that barrier is recognized and the tenet that is out of balance is identified, we can begin designing and implementing solutions in the form of structures.
