Own Your Oops
Mistakes happen—especially in fast-paced school settings. Owning Your Oops is a light, printable activity that helps staff take responsibility for small missteps while lifting each other up with kindness, connection, and a little humor. It’s a powerful way to turn “oops” moments into opportunities for growth and trust.
How it Works
Staff choose from printable apology cards with light-hearted, affirming prompts, personalize their message, and deliver it with care. Includes ready-to-print cards and examples to spark meaningful, respectful repair.
