The current research examines an evidence-based program called Communities In Schools located in Texas that provides services to elementary students and teaches them how to navigate socially and emotionally through grief. Childhood experiences through losing a loved one can subsequently impact an elementary student's academic outcomes. However,…

Class teachers have a meaningful role in the life of primary school students as they are responsible for the majority of their students' instruction. Previous research has shown that teachers who make efforts to learn and develop in their work also promote their students' learning and well-being. This learning orientation is referred to in this…

Due to low levels of student engagement during the COVID-19 pandemic, elementary school students suffered significant learning losses, which served as the driving force behind this research.
