Hello 7th grade parents! It’s hard to believe, but this Friday will be our final RULER classes for this school year! It’s been amazing to see the students participate so well in these classes and the growth they’ve made over the year. Students will continue the lesson about being their best selves and strategies they can use to regulate their emotions. Next year, we will pick up with year 2 of the RULER program and look forward to these lessons and working with our students. Thank you and if you have any questions about SEL in the 7th grade, please reach out to jstarner@lawrenceschool.org Thanks!

Hello 8th grade parents! It’s an exciting time around school as summer is near and the weather gets warmer. This week will be the final RULER class meetings for the year and it has been great to see the students collaborate in classes and show continued growth. Students will continue the lesson about being your best self and using strategies to regulate your emotions this week and it’s been a pleasure to have the students in these classes. We will pick up with year 2 of RULER in the fall and look forward to continuing our work in the areas of positive social relationships and emotion regulation strategies.
