Transitioning to middle school can be tough. The research-based Second Step program helps schools teach and model essential communication, coping, and decision-making skills that help adolescents navigate around common pitfalls such as peer pressure, substance abuse, and bullying (both in-person and online). The outcomes include reduced aggression and support for a more inclusive environment that helps students stay in school, make good choices, and experience social and academic success.
Students enjoy the interactive activities, video vignettes, and guided discussions of real-world scenarios.
Teachers appreciate the media-rich lessons that are easy to teach and integrate into everyday class time.
Principals like that the program includes training and support for staff, reduces problem behaviors, and improves school climate.
Participants will:
- Have hands-on experience and practice with the curriculum
- Learn how to effectively teach the Second Step lessons
- Have opportunities to discuss implementation challenges with colleagues
