PRAISE FOR WHOLE "Many people talk about teacher burnout, but few have taken the time to really understand the problem and propose solutions. Rex and his team have. Highly recommended." --Tony Wagner , bestselling author of The Global Achievement Gap and Creating Innovators "Growing up poor in Hell's Kitchen, New York, with a single mother who immigrated to the US at a young age, education was both critical and challenging. I knew it would be the most important factor in my ability to succeed in life. As the Chief Education Evangelist at Google, or any of the other organizations I am involved with, my mission is to give the millions of students who are growing up under similar conditions the opportunity to succeed. WHOLE is a bold book that successfully takes on the challenge students are facing today. It provides a roadmap for administrators and teachers to bolster teacher well-being and help students thrive.


" --Jaime Casap , Chief Education Evangelist, Google "Too often technology becomes one more thing teachers must learn, which adds more work and stress. If applied properly, technology should instead reduce the load and free a teacher to engage more with each of their students in higher-quality interactions. I recommend reading WHOLE to think through ways to reduce teacher stress and improve their health and well-being. Less stressed teachers are key to unlocking learning." --Michael B. Horn , coauthor of Choosing College and Blended and cofounder of the Clayton Christensen Institute "In order to learn optimally, children need to feel safe and cared for. Teachers want to provide environments that give students what they need to thrive, but often find themselves so overworked and highly stressed, that they're unable to be the kinds of teachers they set out to be. WHOLE looks at the current challenges and obstacles our teachers and schools are facing, how they are impacting health, mental health, and the vitality for learning, and offers practical suggestions for bringing wholeness into our schools.


" --Tina Payne Bryson , PhD, LCSW, Co-author of The Whole-Brain Child, No-Drama Discipline, The Yes Brain, and The Power of Showing Up "Finally a book on conscious schools! Schools have become places that demand our children to conform and perform. WHOLE does a wonderful job of exposing how this pressure is shutting down students and raising the stress on teachers. Neither can perform under these conditions. The stories and research WHOLE shares of schools that have broken out of this cycle provide hope and a path forward for your school and your classroom." --Dr . Shefali Tsabary, acclaimed speaker, clinical psychologist and author of The Awakened Family.
