NAESP Mourns Tragic Loss of Life in Oklahoma
The National Association of Elementary School Principals family mourns the tragic loss of life that resulted from the tornadoes that devastated Moore, Oklahoma. Although words cannot adequately express our feelings, our hearts go out to the Moore community, and NAESP stands ready to assist the Briarwood Elementary School and Plaza Towers Elementary School communities during this heart-rending time.
NAESP has collected valuable resources to help educators respond to crises, with specific tools for principals, parents, and students. Find resources here that will help you talk to your staff about coping with tragedy and loss, and re-establishing a sense of normalcy.
