Students Interact

One of the benefits with our partnership with the YMCA is the use of the facilities for programs during the day.  Throughout the school year our students participate in a program called Students Interact.  Students Interact gives all students the tools to enjoy life and foster future confidence in and concern for others. Active learning strategies such as role-playing moods and feelings, making use of active listening and “I” messages, assertively practicing refusal skills and conflict-resolution techniques, and demonstrating acceptance and tolerance of others are ways in which learning benchmarks enable students to apply social learning to new situations.

Thank you to Mrs. Connolly and her helping teachers for working on this great program.
