All students in Noble academy have access to our Concord Prevention Clinicians, Laura Vermilion, MA, LSW, and Natalie May, BA, QMHS. Preventative well-being educational programming will be provided in the classroom.
The topics are relevant to our students' overall social and emotional well-being. Group discussion and education will focus on the areas of self-acceptance, emotions and coping, beliefs and behaviors, problem-solving and decision making, and interpersonal relationships. The Thinking, Feeling, Behaving Curriculum for Adolescents, by Ann Vernon, will be utilized to address these subjects. In addition to general well-being education, the Safety First curriculum will be used to provide drug prevention education, including peer pressure refusal strategies. This program is completely voluntary.
