Vision
To inspire Socially and Emotionally Literate students and families! We define socio-emotional literacy, as the capacity to be self-aware of your emotions and empowered to self-regulate; and, then empowered to relate to others in healthy ways through empathy, boundary setting, and accountable decision making. To have the ability to “read” your emotions and “read” the emotions of others and stay true to your IDENTITY in the process!
Partnerships
During the 2022-2023 School Year, we partnered with Melanin Dayschool Academy (www.melanindayschoolacademy.org) to bring Social-Emotional Literacy (SEL) to students within Sacramento County.
