<description>&lt;p&gt;Today our guests are Yvonne Culver, Director of School Counseling and Student Wellness, and Stephanie Hammond, Coordinator for School Counselors at Akron Public Schools. We talk about how they moved beyond "posters on the wall" by creating a district timeline that aligns life skills with academic pacing guides. They share how they engaged content teachers to build practical toolkits that integrate character development into daily lessons without adding more work. They highlight the critical need for patience in implementation and how to use data for support rather than compliance.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Learn More About CharacterStrong:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;Access FREE &lt;a href="https://characterstrong.com/samples/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;MTSS Curriculum Samples&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="https://characterstrong.com/request-a-quote/"&gt;Request a Quote Today!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href= "https://characterstrong.com/mtss-implementation-packages/"&gt;Learn more about CharacterStrong Implementation Support&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Visit the &lt;a href="https://characterstrong.com"&gt;CharacterStrong Website&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt;</description>
