The Gardiners Avenue R.I.S.E. Program
R.I.S.E. Resources
What is R.I.S.E.?
R.I.S.E. is a social and emotional program originally created by the staff, students, and families at Salk Middle School. Since our students will be attending Salk in the years to come, we have recently adopted the R.I.S.E. program. The program focuses on teaching students core values through which we hope to improve their behavior, academics, and social learning. The social and emotional learning of our students is very important to us and it should be a collaboration with our school, families, and the community.
What does R.I.S.E. stand for?
- R-Responsibility, Respect
- I-Integrity
- S-Safety, Staying Healthy
- E-Empathy
Who is involved with R.I.S.E.?
