My Students
My students are authentic, hard working, supportive, engaging, caring and eager learners. They are on a journey to acquiring and applying their knowledge, skills, and attitudes to developing healthy identities, managing emotions and achieving personal and collective goals. They are learning how to feel and show empathy for others, establishing and maintaining supportive relationships, and making responsible and caring decisions.
Through a school-family-community partnership, we strive to establish a healthy learning environment and experiences for all the students.
My Project
Using a variety of multidisciplinary techniques and approaches helps ensure that all students have access to learning. Games are a great tool to introduce and teach social emotional learning skills to our students. These are the skills that help kids become more self-aware, develop positive relationships, show empathy towards others, manage their emotions, use self-control, resolve conflicts, and make positive decisions.
The social and emotional skills needed to play successfully with others are those needed to succeed at work and in adult life.
With a tablet along with sensory integration tools our students can learn how to self regulate in one on one setting to support student needs. The natural affiliation between children, play, and the desire to have fun with others makes games an ideal vehicle for teaching Social Emotional Learning.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
