East Avenue to Choose Love
Hello Families and Happy Fall!!
This month at East Avenue, teachers and students will embark on a journey of social-emotional growth. We will use the Choose Love curriculum to teach students about resiliency and what it means to have the "courage to be grateful when life isn't easy, to forgive when the person who hurt you isn't sorry, and to step outside your own pain to help someone else." We know students are under an increasing amount of stress in their daily life. We are hopeful that by implementing this curriculum, we will help students to grow into people who are aware of their emotions and can become responsible citizens poised to run the world.
Families are encouraged to review the curriculum and embark on this journey along with their student. A link to the Jesse Lewis Foundation and Choose Love Curriculum can be found at https://www.jesselewischooselove.org/
Parent University
Parent University offers parents and care-givers a series of in-person workshops designed to offer tools to help adults navigate the tween years. This year, in partnership with Axis Community Health, East Avenue Middle School is going to host a series of presentations we have named Parent University. The goal of the series is to give families additional tools to help them and their middle school student through these years. It is also aimed to make parents aware of trends and how to help their student avoid certain pitfalls.
