Social / Emotional Development - Purpose

To implement a relationship-based community model of classroom management based on strong communication between children and peers and children and adults.

Philosophy

Learn with the Best utilizes a classroom management system based on Conscious Discipline, a brain based research program created by Dr. Becky Bailey.

This program was developed in 2005 and is a social-emotional program that focuses on creating ‘school families’ where children and teachers can have joy, helpfulness, and caring as a foundation for the educational process.

Research conducted in schools using this program shows that implementing the principles of Conscious Discipline decreases aggression and impulsivity / hyperactivity in ‘difficult’ children while promoting academic progress, staff collegiality, and a positive school environment.

We will be using the S.T.A.R. (Stop/Smile, Take a deep breath, And, Relax) philosophy to teach our children these skills.
