It has been a good week here at Jerome. Students and staff have settled into the 3rd quarter and are hard at work. Dublin Jerome is a special place and we are all fortunate to have the chance to learn together each day.
We continue to work hard to improve and discover ways to help ALL students be successful. We are appreciative of your support to work with your children each day.

Social Emotional Learning
We have collaboratively identified the theme of Self-Management with a focus on "regulating emotions and behaviors by using thinking strategies that are consistent with brain development". Throughout the 2nd semester, students will be exposed to discussions and strategies and in their classrooms that will help them deal with situations in a healthy manner.
We hope by being intentional with this work we will be able to provide students with tools that help them develop healthy behaviors when faced with worry or anxiety.
