WHAT IS TOOLBOX?
Toolbox, our K-6 Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) curriculum, enhances children’s experience of Self and Other, as well as their ability to learn – by giving them 12 tools (skills) to manage their own resilience, self-mastery and empathy for others. The brief film clip to the right shows children speaking about the impact of Toolbox in their lives.
