HELLO PARENTS AND STUDENTS!

CLASS SUMMARY:
This course teaches tools to enhance social skills, communication, and emotional intelligence.  Students will learn to identify their strengths and weaknesses in social situations and how to set realistic expectations and goals.

Some examples of social scenarios used in class are: joining a group, making new friends, resolving friendship conflicts, standing up for yourself, and speaking to a group, among others.
