This document discusses rebuilding narratives around schools and education. It emphasizes that every interaction matters and could impact how students remember their experiences. It encourages recognizing, acknowledging, and extending positive interactions to build a culture where people feel proud to be teachers and have positive perceptions of schools. The goal is to change the way schools are talked about through sharing stories of success.
