What stories do we carry into our classrooms—and where did they come from? This interactive virtual workshop will invite educators into a story circle experience centered on American Indian families, education, and community engagement. Through listening, reflection, and shared stories, participants will explore how “single stories” and assumptions shape our relationships with families and students. This is not a lecture. It’s a space to listen, sit with gentle discomfort, and consider how our practices might shift when we make room for many stories instead of just one. Participants will gain: – A deeper understanding of how narratives shape family engagement – Tools for listening with curiosity rather than assumptions – Practical reflection questions to take back to their classrooms and schools.

If an ASL interpreter is required, please notify workshops@pacer.org at least 48 hours prior to the workshop. We will do our best to accommodate your request.
