Education Write Now, Volume II cover

In this innovative series Education Write Now, ten of education’s most inspiring thought-leaders meet for a three-day retreat to think and write collaboratively, and then bring you the top takeaways you need right now to improve your school or classroom.

This second volume, edited by Jeff Zoul and Sanée Bell, focuses on relationships—the heart of everything we do in education. Building strong relationships and a positive school culture takes intentional, consistent effort, and the authors provide strategies and examples to help you along the way.

Throughout the book, you’ll find insights and inspiration on these topics:

  • Connecting the dots among students and staff (Jeffrey Zoul)
  • Strengthening relationships in the learner-centered class (Randy Ziegenfuss)
  • Building a culture of equity and access (Rosa Isiah)
  • Cultivating student strengths and interests (Elisabeth Bostwick)
  • Bridging the gap between schools and families (Laura Gilchrist)
  • Deepening connections through productive conflict (Sanée Bell)
  • Finding relationships beyond the four walls (Onica Mayers)
  • Connecting through the power of generosity (Winston Sakurai)
  • Bringing passion into the schoolhouse (Sean Gaillard)
  • Tapping into dreams for a world-class culture (Danny Bauer)

"With most books, readers discover what motivates one, maybe two educators, if they’re lucky. The second volume of Education Write Now is unique in that it reveals what drives ten diverse and accomplished educators. While the preface makes it clear that relationship building is the focus of the book, what it doesn’t prepare the reader for is the breadth of actionable and tested strategies that each of the authors writes so passionately about. There is something in this book for every educator, regardless of their interests, experience or title."Jon Harper, Vice Principal, Sandy Hill Elementary School, MD

"Education Write Now (Vol 2) gives readers insight and practical actions on the foundation of education — relationships. Through the collective experience of these ten leaders you will have the powerful resources to strengthen that foundation in your school. This book is for everyone who is connected in any form to education, students, parents/guardians, educators and members of the larger community." — Denise Murai, Parent & Community Liaison, Hahaione Elementary, Honolulu, HI; and HundrED Ambassador, HundrED.org
