Mandt is a course on learning how to manage people in escalated states. As some of you know, I’ve been a Mandt instructor for nearly 12 years, and have been trained in it for about 15 years.
Well, the time has come to say goodbye to good old Mandt and hello to Safety Care. The school district has decided to save some money and go with this new program.
Although I was getting a little tired of Mandt, I still hate change. It was very hard to learn a new way of doing things and it will be even harder to actually “do” and teach the new stuff….but I guess I’ll have to get over myself.
On the last day of the instructor training, my fellow Mandt-ers and I wore our Mandt t-shirts that wer tie-dyed with love by our leader, Glenn. On the back of our t-shirts it read, “Building Relationships…one hug at a time”. Well, so long, Mandt. I will miss you dearly.
