Mrs. DeKezel, the elementary school counselor, has been visiting the junior high classrooms once a month to share social and emotional learning (SEL) lessons with the students. This month, seventh graders learned about intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, while eighth graders learned about overcoming negativity. Through these lessons, students are learning skills like problem-solving, self-regulation, and empathy, which lead to helping improve academics, reduce negative social behaviors, and create positive classroom climates.
