Many of us can recall back from our own educationa Many of us can recall back from our own educational experience a teacher who took the time to get to know us personally. We probably felt validated. We probably felt highly motivated to perform in that classroom because we understood that the teacher was there not only to encourage us to be learners, but also to help us advocate for ourselves and our full potential. At Rainbow, we have the privilege of a variety of ways that we foster really meaningful relationships between a child, a teacher, and their full classroom community.

Interested in learning more about how we foster meaningful relationships at Rainbow? Check out Episode 4 of our Kaleidoscope podcast and be sure to visit our website to download the companion PDF resource. Links can be found in our social media profiles and on our website.
