Priority II: Safety & Whole Child Development
Cultivate conditions where all students feel safe, valued, empowered, and loved.
Why is this urgent?
The Allentown School District knows that when we nurture the whole child, we go beyond academics, focusing on physical and mental well-being, social-emotional tools and safe learning environments. This approach fosters a sense of community and provides students with the interpersonal skills crucial for lifelong success and responsible citizenship.
Our Commitment
Each student, regardless of background, deserves to flourish in a learning environment that prioritizes whole well-being, encompassing social, emotional, behavioral, and mental aspects, alongside academic success. By seamlessly integrating continuous holistic student support systems and cultivating a positive, safe, and accepting school culture, we aim to create inclusive opportunities for all students to achieve success in school and beyond.
How Will We Measure Our Progress Towards These Goals?
District and school implementation of a Multi-Tiered System of Support to monitor attendance, climate data, quarterly grades, engage referrals through participation in services/activities, attendance, student progress monitoring.
