Dr. Campbell’s social and vocational learning strategies class is a safe haven where social and emotional learning take center stage. This class is a space of warmth and empathy, making every student feel seen and heard. Our class sessions usually involve socialization activities, journaling, sharing circles, and social and vocational learning opportunities. These activities help us center ourselves, a welcome break from the hustle and bustle of the typical school day. Dr. Campbell encourages open dialogue about our feelings and challenges, fostering a sense of community and support among us all.
In this class, we explore topics beyond textbooks – from effective communication and conflict resolution to building healthy relationships. The discussions are engaging and relatable, creating a space where vulnerability is embraced rather than feared. This class emphasizes the importance of self-awareness and self-care, reminding us that academic success is intertwined with our emotional well-being. As we navigate high school, this learning strategies class is here to help us better understand ourselves and each other, setting the tone for a supportive and emotionally intelligent community throughout our years.
