In addition, it can often be a challenge coming into a school that already has expectations based on prior Playworks touchpoints. Village East&#8217;s recess staff have attended Pro trainings, and their principal comes from a school that had a very strong Coach program. With that said, Jeff showed up professionally from day one, building rapport with recess staff and admin. right away, and getting his program up and running quickly. <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2810 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.playworks.org\/colorado\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2019\/10\/IMG_2383-300x225.jpeg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.playworks.org\/colorado\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2019\/10\/IMG_2383-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.playworks.org\/colorado\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2019\/10\/IMG_2383-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.playworks.org\/colorado\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2019\/10\/IMG_2383-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.playworks.org\/colorado\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2019\/10\/IMG_2383-1440x1080.jpeg 1440w, https:\/\/www.playworks.org\/colorado\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2019\/10\/IMG_2383-960x720.jpeg 960w, https:\/\/www.playworks.org\/colorado\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2019\/10\/IMG_2383-640x480.jpeg 640w, https:\/\/www.playworks.org\/colorado\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2019\/10\/IMG_2383-800x600.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/www.playworks.org\/colorado\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2019\/10\/IMG_2383-444x333.jpeg 444w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During the month of October Jeff has been quick to collaborate with office priorities.
