Social Emotional Learning at Waterside

SEL

Brain Power

Brain Power Wellness teaches physical and mental brain breaks, mindfulness practices, and social emotional wellness strategies that support a positive classroom atmosphere. We partner with Teachers, Students, Parents, and Administrators to create a sustainable, healthy, happy and focused school environment.

PBIS

Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) is an evidence-based three-tiered framework to improve and integrate all of the data, systems, and practices affecting student outcomes every day. PBIS creates schools where all students succeed

Restorative Justice (Team Time)

Restorative justice empowers students to resolve conflicts on their own and in small groups, and it’s a growing practice at schools around the country. Essentially, the idea is to bring students together in peer-mediated small groups to talk, ask questions, and air their grievances.

The Leader in Me

Schools can teach Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) through the development of curriculum & activities focused on the personal and interpersonal leadership capacity of students, staff, and families. Learn more about SEL and how Leader in Me, a CASEL-endorsed SEL program, helps prepare students for life success.
