The cornerstone of the LE social curriculum is our
weekly “class meeting.” The students set the agendas for and hold class
meetings, which are used to discuss and solve problems together. No issue is
too big or too small to merit the group’s attention. We resolve issues of
social exclusion, work out game rules that make everyone feel safe and
included, and learn how to speak honestly and openly to each other without
projecting blame. These social skills often set them apart from other children
their age, as they learn to deal with social and emotional issues with empathy
and respect at a very early age.
