Social Emotional Learning

PS 280Q H.E.A.R.T.


Kindness tree: At PS 280Q we are excited to introduce our Kindness Tree initiative designed to promote Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) and foster a culture of respect and kindness throughout our school community. This initiative encourages students, staff and families to recognize and celebrate acts of kindness, creating a supportive and inclusive environment where everyone feels valued. By spreading kindness and respect, we aim to strengthen the bonds within our school and inspire positive interactions everyday!

Monthly Recognition at PS280Q
At PS280Q, we celebrate excellence, teamwork, and character every month! Teachers nominate students for the prestigious titles of Student of the Month and Superhero of the Month, recognizing their outstanding achievements and contributions. Not to mention, these students also receive special recognition for their efforts!
As part of our Bucket Filling Initiative, classes work together to earn coins, and the class with the most coins at the end of the month is celebrated for their collective kindness, respect, and teamwork.
At PS280Q, we prioritize our students' social-emotional well-being by focusing on the CASEL Frameworks. Our mission is to create well-rounded individuals and prepare our students to become responsible and compassionate future citizens in our community.
