• When have your relationships with teachers and students mattered to you?

​

• We saw the action of teachers and students at McKinley and we noticed many problems with student/teacher relationships.
• How many issues are being affected because of poor relationships between teachers and students?

Research Purpose

• Better environment for students and teachers
• Increase positive academic outcomes for students
• Reduce truancy
• Increase overall happiness at school

• “​When teachers form positive bonds with students, classrooms become supportive spaces in which students can engage in academically and socially productive ways.” - Emily Gallaher

• “Students need to feel that adults care about them as individuals as well as about their academic achievement.”

We asked our McK students and teachers...

• Can students and teachers create better relationships at Mckinley?

Survey says...

• The relationships students have with their teachers have a huge affect on their academic outcomes.

• Better relationships could lead to higher academic scores, lower dropout rates more opportunities and just a better state of the overall happiness at school.
