Life Skills facilitators
If you are not familiar with this program it is a really awesome opportunity that connects our Upper School students with the Primary students. The group of students listed below have been through training to facilitate a curriculum to not only our 4th grade classroom, but Good Shepherd 4th graders as well. The curriculum is designed to focus on life skills (self-esteem, positive decision-making, coping with stress, and handling conflict in positive ways) and the 4th graders love having the Upper School students in to teach them.
Participating Upper School Students:
Danielle Morris
Emily Shockley
Zoe Renschler
Luke Alcock
Brittony Rodgers
Jessica Turner
Sarah Ballard
Peyton Schultheis
Maya Mchedlishvili
