…Unless her PD is totally engaging, laugh-out-loud funny and loaded with best practices in mental health, special education, and behavior management. We have spent the last decade refining our programs and practices through hundreds of training seminars and evaluations with hard-working educators to deliver, well, pure happiness.

Does this sound too good to be true? We respect that, but we also reject that. Our educators spend their whole professional lives forced to “settle” for the status quo professional development (which is, by all accounts, boring, patronizing, empty, and out of touch.) As a result, educators are often left with only bits and pieces of the tools they actually need to make a meaningful difference in the life of a child.

If we ask our educators to settle, we are essentially asking our students to settle—and that is not acceptable. Instead of the status quo, let Optimistic Teaming deliver the goods with:

• Laugh-out-loud fun and engaging professional learning experiences
• Best practices in student wellness, behavior management, mental health, and special education
• Ready-to-use tools and strategies
• Practical problem solving
• Customized consultation
