The headlines tell the story Students are in conflict Kids First can help
|
Research shows students need to be in safe and nurturing
environments to learn. It is difficult for students to focus on
the task of learning when they don’t feel safe or nurtured.
Some of the manifestations of unsafe and non-nurturing
environments include: apathy, poor attendance, verbal and
physical altercations, and poor academic performance.
Kids First has developed an integrated personalized
comprehensive conflict resolution program that teaches
students to resolve differences peacefully. Kids First
teaches effective communication skills; character building
skills; diversity, tolerance and acceptance skills. Students
are encouraged to see other points of view and to live
peacefully in a multicultural environment.
As you are planning your school year, consider a proactive
stance: educate your students, parents, faculty, staff, and
community. Kids First can help. We personalize the program
to fit your needs.
