- Explain the overall goal of the workshop and then have the learners set their own goals for the workshop. Our overall goal is not to have teachers completely change their management systems but to implement certain characteristics of our management system so that they can better serve their students. Especially those students who are at risk. Realistically this workshop should help the learners make necessary modifications to their current management systems. -Next, explain the overall goal of our management system "Changing at risk youth to youth of promise". Explain how changing one kids life can make such a difference in the long run. Explain the benefits of the management system.======

=
- Ask a teacher, principal, and a counselor to share why they think it is important they are aware of the management system. Let learners elaborate during this discussion.======
