I wish to spearhead character education by implementing the Second Step violence prevention program for grades preK-8 in my high needs Public School. The program integrates academics with social emotional learning targeting empathy, problem-solving, and anger/emotion management. When an academic content standard is aligned with a core second step concept, that standard is addressed multiple times in the curriculum. The program, which is research-based and shown to reduce discipline referrals and improve school climate, employs story/class discussion, role-play, teacher modeling, coaching and cueing, and planned behavior reinforcement. The program includes teacher-friendly lessons, training for educators, and parent-education tools.
