Whole Child Education Is The Answer

Whole Child Education is the answer to our current and future world problems and concerns.  Our world needs whole, healthy, stable, consistent and secure people.  We need children learning with their hearts and minds.  We need integrated learning.  Our focus must be integrating our academic content with Social Emotional Learning.  We must re-commit our purpose to the whole child.  Our schools (teachers and students) are best served with a holistic, wellness model that focuses on mental, emotional, social, physical, and spiritual health.

It is from this fully integrated approach that students are engaged, motivated, and enthusiastic about their learning. 

“Vocation is the place where the hearts deep gladness meets the world’s deep hunger.”  - Frederick Buechner

When we focus on the integration of academics with Social Emotional Learning, we access the joy in our hearts and this joy addresses the needs of our world.  This is the essence of service learning.
