It’s Social Emotional Learning Week here at Williamsburg — and we have a special message from APS. Today we are highlighting the SEL competencies of Social Awareness and Relationship Skills.

This means being able to have empathy and care for others, to appreciate and respect our differences, to communicate effectively, and to work well with others. These attributes help us to create a healthy and supportive community. Stay tuned all week long for more SEL tips and activities. See Ms. Terzaghi with any questions.

And finally, March is Women’s History Month — a time to recognize and celebrate the AMAZING contributions that women have made to the world we live in.
