Emotional Intelligence and Growth

Emotional intelligence is something that’s part of the whole person, right? They can’t just learn academics or sports at school or things like that.

You know, social intelligence, emotional intelligence is a crucial part of their development as a whole human being.

And the fact that they get that kind of support here, it just opens their mind and keeps them more, I guess I don’t know what other word to use except for open.

You know, to trying things and talking about things and feeling like they’re in a safe space to do so.

Whereas the schools that we had been in before, that’s not really the biggest focus.

And I understand because you don’t have the resources or the support as a foundation there.

But that is here and you, it’s not just the school, it’s also the families here.

Everybody has that kind of same understanding that this is something that’s important and they’re not going to, you know, just dismiss it or skim on it.

It’s just as important as academics here.
