Rosemary Lamparella, the current S.T.E.P. teacher at Emmaus High School, sees in her daily work the importance of helping students adapt, grow, and change to build the skills necessary to become members of a school and local community.
Even though May was Mental Health Awareness Month, she knows the social and emotional challenges high school students face can present throughout the year, even as we approach the summer vacation and strives to provide students the knowledge and support to assist them with their personal development.
In this episode, Ms. Lamparella explores the connection between Positive Childhood Experiences (PCEs) and better outcomes. She describes the seven factors associated with PCEs and gives actionable steps to take incorporate them into your daily routine.
Topics from this episode include
- Her 9th grade experience in a small school with fewer than 100 students in her entire class
- Her career shift into education
- The definition of resiliency
- How Positive Childhood Experiences can shape your future success
- The importance of creating a good vocabulary around your feelings and emotions
- Identifying the need to practice and develop skills in different areas of your everyday life
- The connection between volunteering and gratitude
- Why a 15 minute conversation per day with a parent can make a big difference
