For the last few years our Kindergarten classes have been able to receive classroom guidance lessons as a part of their specials rotation. This year they rotate from P.E, Music, Art, STEM, Media, Theater, and SEAL. On average Kindergarten students receive about 30 classroom guidance lessons a year!
This year, our kindergarteners will have SEAL class with Mrs. Edwards and will use the Second Step Program.
