We can equip them to be academically ready all day long, but if they can't get to work on time and they can't get along with others, then we are failing.
Imagine a school where both students and teachers are equipped with the skills to thrive, not just academically but emotionally and socially. In this episode of 'Arkansas A.W.A.R.E.', Dr. Betsy Kindall hosts Susan Jobe, the G.U.I.D.E. For Life Specialist, to discuss how two powerful programs are joining forces to create such environments. G.U.I.D.E. For Life is more than an acronym; it’s a roadmap for personal success, emphasizing growth, self-awareness, interaction, decision-making, and empathy.
These principles aren't just buzzwords; they are vital skills that help students navigate life both inside and outside the classroom. Betsy and Susan dive into how these principles can be seamlessly integrated into daily school life, making learning more holistic. They also touch on the importance of social-emotional learning (SEL) and teacher resilience. With SEL becoming a hot topic in education, this episode sheds light on practical ways to incorporate it into the curriculum, making it accessible for every educator.
The conversation is rich with real-world applications and resources, offering tier one interventions to improve school climate and culture. The synergy between A.W.A.R.E. and G.U.I.D.E. For Life exemplifies how collaborative efforts can lead to a more supportive educational environment. By the end of this episode, you'll feel inspired and equipped with actionable strategies to foster a more resilient school community.
Whether you're an educator, parent, or someone passionate about the future of education, this episode offers valuable insights that are both informative and heartening. Tune in to learn how you can contribute to building a supportive and thriving school culture.
