peace corner
All classrooms are expected to have a designated “Peace Corner.” This location is a place where scholars can go within the classroom to take a break, reset, reflect, and self-regulate emotions. This is a safe space for scholars to visit. A starter-pack of materials will be provided to each teacher to stock the Peace Corner. Teachers can add to it as they wish. The following guidelines should be utilized in each classroom.
