Influencer Strategy
What results do I want to achieve?
My heart is set on making every student shine their brightest! Over the next two academic years, I am excited to introduce the Mightier app—a magical tool designed to help our young heroes master their emotions. By weaving Mightier into the daily routines, especially supporting the amazing students with autism, I aim to create a classroom where feelings are understood, friendships flourish, and every child feels empowered to navigate their emotions with confidence and joy. Together, we’re building a happier, kinder, and more resilient school community where every student can thrive!
How will I measure results?
I’ll be keeping a close eye on the amazing progress our students make along the way! By using pre- and post-implementation surveys, I’ll track how often emotional outbursts occur and look for connections between emotional regulation and academic success. I’ll also gather thoughtful feedback from teachers and parents on the changes they’re seeing, while using data from the Mightier app to celebrate each child’s unique journey. With these insights, I’ll ensure that every step we take supports the students’ growth, happiness, and success—and helps create a stronger, more supportive school community for everyone!

Vital Behaviors for Success
Consistent App Usage by Students
Consistently using the Mightier app for daily 10-minute emotional regulation sessions is a key behavior for student success. This routine helps reinforce emotional awareness and coping strategies, promoting emotional growth. Research shows that regular app usage is not only measurable and repeatable, but it also leads to tangible improvements in students' emotional resilience and well-being. By making this behavior a daily habit, students gain the tools they need to navigate challenges with confidence and self-awareness.
