Our building utilizes Conscious Discipline by Dr. Becky Bailey to "integrate classroom management and social-emotional learning."  (www.consciousdiscipline.com).  We focus on the regulation of our own emotions, assisting children to regulate their own emotions, cooperation, and developing problem-solving skills in real-world situations.  Ask any of our staff about how this looks at HGECC, we would love to share with you!
