Circle Ways
Vista partners with Circle Ways to provide staff ongoing training in the facilitation of Way of Council.
The Four Intentions
- Speak from the Heart
- Listen from the Heart
- Speak Spontaneously
- Speak Leanly
Building Empathy
Being “in council” helps students develop attention, concentration, and listening skills; to express themselves fully and appropriately; and to suspend preconceptions.
Council as a Restorative Practice
Not only does Vista use Way of Council to build community, it is also used to restore relationships and trust when needed.
