The 74: Q&A — 3 Minutes With Charter School Founder Jessica Nauiokas
The 74 Million, in their ongoing series of interviews with education innovators, recently spoke with Jessica Nauiokas of Haven Academy.
“At the core of our success, I truly believe our commitment to creating and maintaining a safe, predictable learning environment that holds kids to high expectations has helped anchor our work. That is coupled with our deep belief that understanding empathy, teaching empathy and showing kids how to practice empathy toward others has helped them not only make sense of their own challenges and struggles, but build relationships with important peers and teachers through the building,” Jessica says.
