Howe Middle and the RULER Program
"Ideally, how do you want to feel at school? What are some actions that you could take to ensure you, and others feel this way?"
These are two of the many questions staff and students at Colleen and Gordie Howe Middle School are discussing in-depth as part of the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence RULER program. RULER stands for recognizing, understanding, labeling, expressing, and regulating, and is a systemic approach to social-emotional learning designed to infuse emotional intelligence into the very core of K-12 education.
