Episode Details

🎯 What’s in This Episode?

I’m on the lookout for 10 beta testers to join me in shaping the future of the SchoolX Book Study. This isn’t just another course—I’m transforming the live book study into an asynchronous, self-paced experience, and I’d love for you to be part of the process.

💡 Why Should You Join as a Beta Tester?

• Early Access: Get hands-on with the SchoolX Book Study before anyone else.

• Behind-the-Scenes Insights: See how I’m using AI to refine and enhance the content.

• Direct Feedback Opportunities: Your input will help shape the final product.

• Personal Touchpoints: Exclusive one-on-one check-ins with me to discuss your growth and feedback.

I released SchoolX back in 2020 (yes, during the height of the pandemic), and revisiting it recently blew me away. The content is still incredibly relevant, and the feedback so far has been phenomenal—one participant even watched a 2-hour recording and sent me a 1,000-word response! 🤯

Here’s the two videos I mention in the episode:

If you’re a school or district leader struggling with the challenge of chronic absenteeism, as so many are across the U.S., you may not realize that structured recess is a research-backed approach to keep kids in school. In fact, a UC Berkeley study of Title I schools found that those partnering with Playworks had significantly lower chronic absenteeism rates. Further, Mathematica research demonstrated that Playworks schools spent 27% less time transitioning from recess back to learning, saving teachers valuable instructional time. 

These results are possible for your students, too. Learn how Playworks can help you improve student-educator relationships, belonging, and attendance by signing up for a quick no-obligation conversati
