Building Culture and Retention Through Employee Wellness Programming
Tuesday October 6, 2026 10:30am - 11:30am EDT
In an era of rising costs and intense talent competition, a standard benefits package is no longer enough to sustain a thriving school culture. This session empowers leaders to move beyond "surface-level perks" and build a systemic Employee Wellness Program that anchors faculty retention. Using a holistic framework, participants will analyze how to support the educator experience through the four dimensions of wellness: Mind (mindfulness and creativity), Body (nutrition and physical/mental health), Relationships (connection and belonging), and Purpose (professional development).
Attendees will identify strategies to
  • Audit and activate underutilized resources within existing insurance plans.
  • Cultivate high-impact partnerships with local organizations for community-based support.
  • Design a sustainable roadmap that transforms wellness from an individual burden into a shared institutional priority.
Leave this session with a practical toolkit to reimagine hiring and school culture through the lens of comprehensive well-being.
