RULER
-
Embracing the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence RULER model, our school commits to fostering a culture where emotional intelligence is key. This approach ensures our students develop essential emotional skills, vital for both their personal growth and academic success. By weaving emotional intelligence into our daily practices, we support every student's comprehensive development, equipping them with the resilience, empathy, and understanding needed to face life's challenges.
At the heart of this initiative is the RULER program, focusing on:
-
Recognizing, Understanding, Labeling, Expressing, and Regulating emotions. These components align with the Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning (CASEL) competencies, promoting:
-
Self-awareness
-
Self-management
-
Social awareness
-
Relationship skills
-
Responsible decision-making
Mastery of these skills is crucial for students to not only succeed academically but also lead emotionally intelligent lives.
Furthermore, RULER's tools enhance this learning:
-
Mood Meter: Boosts emotional awareness and empathy.
-
Meta Moment: Teaches thoughtful emotional regulation and resilience.
-
Blueprint: Aids in managing interpersonal conflicts constructively.
-
Charter: A collaborative agreement outlining how community members aspire to treat each other, promoting respect, understanding, and support. This reinforces our commitment to a positive and empathetic school culture.
Together, these tools empower our students with robust emotional intelligence skills, setting them up for success in all areas of life.
