### **Join Dordt University for a *free* professional development webinar.**

School leaders are feeling the tension right now. We want strong safety systems, but we don’t want fear or a cold culture creeping in. In *Balancing School Safety with a Thriving School Culture*, we’ll talk about how leadership posture shapes safety more than policies ever will. It’s practical, grounded, and focused on building calm, consistent systems that actually fit a healthy school culture. You’ll leave with confidence that safety and joy really can live in the same building.

**Presenter Bio:**

**Dr. Tyler Amidon** currently serves as the Middle School Principal at Denver Christian School and as an Assistant Adjunct of Graduate Education at Dordt University, where he teaches Collaborative Leadership. He also provides educational consulting, specializing in teacher development, leadership mentoring, and the integration of technology in education.
