Social Emotional Learning allows our scholars to grow socially and emotionally, so they can manage conflict, themselves and develop coping skills. By learning these strategies, our scholars will also boost their academic achievement through focus and goal setting. Due to our scholars currently attending classes from home, we developed an SEL online session for our SEL small group scholars. Parents will be receiving an email from Ms. Ferrell by 3/25 outlining the times and instructions for our LIVE sessions.

3-5 SEL Scholars LIVE Sessions begin Friday, 3/27 at 11am - Click here

Please see attached newsletter for our first session - "Let your Love Light Shine" - The Let Your Love Light Shine session is designed to encourage students to develop self-confidence and compassion.
