My Project
Our students are getting strong at self-management skills and remaining in their classrooms. We are seeing more growth in our students as we continue to work on identifying our emotions and selecting effective strategies to help with self-regulation, building stronger relationships, and taking care of our bodies and well-being.
We are resetting our expectations in this new year and revamping our "Think Space" to ensure appropriate resources are available to students.
We have selected noise-canceling headphones to help quickly reduce stimuli and help get centered to minimize the potential escalation of emotions. We have also selected some fidget toys, magnetic cubes, and tiles to help with sensory regulation. We have also selected books to help explicitly teach emotions (anger, sadness, feeling blue, anxiety, etc.) Our students are learning that we all have emotions, big or small, but need to find healthy ways to express them and also build awareness of how they impact our community.
We appreciate your support and value your contribution as we build future leaders who are kind, sympathetic, and productive members of a community.
Happy New Year! Wishing you a healthy and prosperous 2024!
More than half of students from low‑income households
