What is a Trauma-Informed School?
Ash Grove R-IV School District is excited about implementing the state directive on being a Trauma-Informed school.
A “Trauma-informed school” is a school that:
a. realizes the widespread impact of trauma and understands potential paths for recovery
b. recognizes the signs and symptoms of trauma in students, teachers, and staff
c. responds by fully integrating knowledge about trauma into its policies, procedures, and practices; and seeks to actively resist re-traumatization
