Social Emotional Learning

Bowman uses the CORE Essential Values Curriculum to teach students the Big 3 Ideas.  

• Treat Others Right (Relationships)

• Make Smart Decisions (Choices)

• Maximize Potential (Skills)

Each month students are introduced to a CORE Value.  They learn about the value in four simple steps. These steps are taught through classroom lessons, video lessons, activities, visual resources, morning announcements and family newsletters. 

• Say It (Define)

• Know It (Evaluate)

• See It (Encourage)

• Be It (Decide)
