Dr. Glynetta Fletcher Headlines Our Summer Training Institute

April 25, 2024

Posted by Michael Gurian

We are honored to have Dr. Glynetta Fletcher as the First Sunday Morning Keynoter at our Virtual Summer Training Institute.  Dr. Fletcher will also provide our two part Boys and Girls Learn Differently Strategies Sessions, and a workshop on Helping Girls Thrive.

Registrants for our Summer Institute can join Dr. Fletcher, Dr. Gurian, and our other keynoters and workshop presenters, on June 22 – 23 live, and/or access the recordings of the whole Summer Institute for three weeks beyond the two days of the training.  To learn more about event and to register, please visit https://gurianinstitute.com/events/gurian-summer-institute-2024.  To register groups of 5 or more, contact Dakota Hoyt at info@gurianinstitute.com.

Dr. Glynetta (Fletch) Fletcher, First Morning Keynote, Sunday, June 23. The Trauma Advantage: Gender-Specific, Poverty-Sensitive, and Trauma Informed Strategies for Helping Children Learn and Grow

For more than two decades, Dr. Fletcher (“Fletch”) has been teaching in Los Angeles urban schools where she became a Director for Racial Equity Programs.  She has worked with some of the nation’s toughest, most traumatized, and impoverished students.  Fletch is herself a product of childhood trauma and poverty, scoring a 10 out of 10 on ACE (Adverse Childhood Experiences).  She is a testimony to the power of relationships, neuro-plasticity and resilience and will share part of her own personal story.   Her most recent school site was located in one of the highest homicide areas and where students experience high levels of trauma.  As Fletch puts it, “my mission is to help educators and students understand how to move their difficult circumstances from a cause of paralysis to a trauma advantage.”

Fletch is now our Gurian Institute Program Director and Director of the Gurian Institute Equity Programs.  Her keynote focuses on science-based approaches that help teachers, counselors, and parents develop trauma- and poverty-sensitive classrooms and environments.  Fletch will discuss the impact that trauma can have on teachers, students, and parents and share practical strategies so that participants will walk away with tools to support students right away.

A dynamic and inspirational  speaker, Fletch changes hearts and changes minds.  Emboldened by her work with GI in the Greater Phoenix Urban League’s Head Start Pilots in Phoenix, Arizona, Fletch will integrate early childhood strategies with K – 12 strategies in this powerful keynote.

To learn more about Dr. Fletcher, please visit Dr. Fletcher’s Gurian Institute Trainer page.

Here’s more on Dr. Fletcher’s workshops.

The Human Brain:  Setting the Stage, with Dr. Glynetta Fletcher and Dr. Michael Gurian. Body, mind, and soul are not three isolated systems.  Intricately woven together, they give us the human experience.  In our culture now, our children’s bodies, minds, and souls are experiencing significant stress.  This opening session of the conference will link our weekend of training to the deep issues of our time in schools and neighborhoods, and provide a primer on the amazing human brain–both its natural resilience and its potential fragility.

Boys and Girls Learn Differently – Two-Part Strategies Session, with Dr. Glynetta Fletcher, Gurian Institute Program Director and Master Trainer.  This two-part session will give participants a tool box full of practical strategies that can be adapted for use in any classroom to increase teacher effectiveness and make sure the needs of both boys and girls are  met. The workshops will model the strategies as if in a classroom setting.  This two-part session is a requirement for applicants for Gurian Institute Trainer Certification and includes specific innovations for coeducational classrooms and for single sex classrooms and academies.

Helping Girls Thrive in a Post-Covid World:  Drilling Deeper Down on Girls, with Dr. Glynetta Fletcher, Gurian Institute Program Director and Former Equity Coordinator.  In her work in LA Unified over 23 years, Dr. Fletcher drilled down into successful ways to help boys and girls of color thrive.  In her work as a GI consultant in the Head Start Pilots in Phoenix, Fletch has provided an essential cultural literacy component to school room and parental education.  This powerful workshop will give participants a toolbox  of practical strategies that help ensure girls’ success in pre-K through 12 environments.
