Second Step:


This is a busy time for children who are learning many new skills in school.  One area of learning that requires specific skills is social-emotional learning.  These skills are very important for healthy child development.  At Wilson we are strengthening these skills with the use of a Second Step.  Our school social worker, Amy Court, and Principal Sundee have collaborated with teachers and parents to form small groups of children who can work together in developing and practicing positive social skills such as empathy, emotion management, and problem solving.  The groups are going great … watch for future updates about what we are learning!  If you want more information about the Second Step program, please email:  amy.court@loganschools.org.
