Communication Skills

Did you know?


Classroom guidance lessons are not merely a requirement; they serve as a gateway to imparting invaluable skills to our students, enriching both their academic and personal endeavors. This initiative stands as a Tier 1 support, benefiting all students. Much like the curriculum lessons you teach each year, our district has crafted a guidance curriculum tailored to the developmental level stages of our students. For instance, a lesson on communication skills for our 9th graders differs from that of their 10th-grade students. Effectively providing this service is challenging because we only have a single class period to make an impact. To provide additional support, we provide weekly pop-ups. Remarkably, through these lessons, many students have found the courage to come to our counseling office, seeking additional emotional support.


We would like to thank our Taft World History and AP World History teachers for sharing their time with us.
