Caring school community
Nixon School will implement the Caring School Community program this school year. This is a nationally-recognized, evidence-based program for grades K-6 that builds a strong classroom and schoolwide community while developing students' social and emotional (SEL) skills and competencies. Students and staff will work together as a team to create a positive environment that will improve peer relationships and allow our children to develop and flourish to their full potential.
***As a faculty member of the Culture & Climate committee, this is a philosophy that is extremely important to me. A healthy, safe, and supportive learning environment enables students to learn in powerful ways. Such an environment promotes innovation, inquiry, and risk taking which is critical when students may be struggling in a subject matter such as math.
