Students can be in their seats, quiet, and compliant—and still not be learning. That’s why engagement matters. In this episode, we’re unpacking the difference between keeping kids busy and actually engaging them in thinking, talking, and caring about what they’re learning. From shifting walkthroughs to focus on engagement, to celebrating small wins, to giving staff ready-to-use strategies, we’ll show you how engagement becomes the lever that drives behavior, learning, and culture. Because engagement isn’t entertainment—it’s everything.
