Social Emotional Learning is integrated across the curriculum from Preschool onward, guided by EAC's Core Values. SEL helps students understand themselves and others, manage their emotions, forge healthy relationships, and make responsible decisions. The program also engages parents to support students' social-emotional development.
Learning Support provides differentiated instruction and individualized learning strategies for identified students. Homeroom and Learning Support teachers collaborate to tailor approaches, and withdrawal for targeted instruction is supplemental.
The ESL (English as a Second Language) curriculum provides academic and social language support for non-native English speakers in the Elementary School. The primary purpose is to ensure all students become proficient in English and achieve academic success, through one-on-one, small-group (pull-out) and in-class (push-in) support in consultation with the Homeroom teacher. All subjects are taught in English, while Brazilian studies are taught in Portuguese for 1h20 daily.
The Elementary Developmental Counseling Program focuses on the development of the whole student with emphasis on pastoral care, supporting academic, personal, social, and emotional success during the Elementary School.
Safeguarding / Child Protection recognizes that child protection and welfare considerations permeate all aspects of school life and must be reflected in all policies, practices and activities. The policy aims to ensure the safety and wellbeing of children, with proactive training for students, parents, faculty and staff, and all adults who come into contact with children are vetted and trained.
