Our Life Readiness programming helps students understand and manage their emotions, set and achieve positive goals, feel and show empathy for others, establish and maintain positive relationships, and make responsible decisions.
We focus on the five CASEL core competencies:
Self-Management
Responsible Decision-Making
Relationship Skills
Social Awareness
Self-Awareness
We’ll be dedicating time and effort to teaching and reinforcing these competencies to help 9th-12th grade students learn and improve their life readiness skills.
The following areas are covered using our Character Strong curriculum:
Belonging: How can we create a place where everyone feels like they belong?
Well-being: How can I cultivate well-being in my life and the lives of others?
Engagement: What can I do to fully engage in my life now that prepares me for a meaningful life after high school?
Leadership: How can we work to build a better world through personal influence and effective teamwork?
