Abstract
This chapter presents a revised framework for understanding how schools create a spiritually supportive, or awakened, school culture. In a prior study, the researchers identified how schools intentionally design an awakened school culture which supports students' innate spirituality. This research identified 11 drivers of spiritually supportive schools which are applicable to all schools. During the 2021-2022 academic year, these 11 drivers were the foundation for a year-long professional development course for educators: The Awakened Schools Institute. Through the Awakened Schools Institute, educators learned the 11 drivers of a spiritually supportive school culture and applied them to their own classrooms and schools. Through observations and surveys about the application of the 11 drivers through this year-long course, researchers identified a 12th driver of a spiritually supportive school culture: the reauthorization of teachers. This chapter presents the identification of the 12th driver of awakened school culture.
