“Just by acknowledging that ‘we don’t know what we don’t know yet’ just opened the door for everybody to have grace for each other, and when things happen to step back and say ‘Okay, we didn’t anticipate this, but how can we solve the issue?’””

— Shannon Treece, Principal, Babcock Neighborhood School | Babcock Ranch, FL
