                   </strong>
                   . Start by naming connection as a priority for the year. When teachers know this isn’t “one more thing,” but a core part of your school’s success, they’re more likely to commit.

                   </strong>
                   . Show what it looks like in practice — maybe by sharing a simple check-in routine or highlighting how a quick Along question can set the tone. When staff see that relationship-building can be small and manageable, it feels doable.

                   . Build connection into your school calendar, share clear next steps with staff, and encourage simple routines that can be repeated consistently. It’s easier to sustain a culture of belonging when there’s a roadmap in place.

                   </strong>
                   . Students want to be heard. Encouraging staff to collect insights — whether through Along or other check-in practices — helps teachers see what students are really experiencing, class by class.

                  <li>

                   </strong>
                   . When teachers adjust instruction or routines based on student input, it sends a powerful message: “Your voice matters here.” That kind of feedback loop builds trust and strengthens inclusivity.

                  In interviews with 118 K–8 students, Students consistently reported that having both a supervising teacher and a resident in their classroom gave them “double the knowledge” and more personalized support. They also noticed that residents reduced stress for their supervising teachers by stepping in when needed and keeping learning consistent. This suggests residency programs can not only improve student achievement but also support teacher well-being and retention, a dual benefit worth surfacing in leadership discussions.
