Lead background art for the title of September 2025 Educational Leadership article “Belonging Before Behavior” by Sheldon L. Eakins. The illustration supports the central theme of the story, which reframes classroom management through a culturally responsive lens. The piece introduces the “Teacher VIBE” framework—Valuing Inclusion and Belonging for Everyone—and advocates for connection over control, especially for students from collectivist cultural backgrounds.
