My Project

Thank you for your consideration of our project! At our school, we have the most wonderful students, however, several of them live pretty isolated lives; transient living with not a lot of home support or opportunity to engage with others when not in school. Providing opportunities for our students to play board games at lunch, gives them practice in building relationships! It helps grow friendships and a sense of community, which is something desperately needed by so many of our students. The literature requested will also help with whole-school classroom guidance in Social Emotional Learning. Our focus is to help students build skills to be active, positive members of our community.
