At Truesdell Elementary School our approach is designed to help our students grow both in and out of the classroom. Each day is filled with opportunities to experience new educational and social situations to further their development. Our teachers create a safe and open learning environment, where they facilitate students' exploration of the world around them. The videos on this page will give you insight into what we offer our students on a daily basis.

Social-Emotional Learning & Support: Social-emotional learning, or SEL, is a description used to describe children’s ability to understand and be in control of their emotions. This includes actions like feeling empathy, having a sense of identity, building relationships with friends and family, and having flexible thinking. Students at Truesdell take part in SEL activities each day through intentionally planned morning meetings and through weekly grade level community circles. To learn more about SEL, click here.

Project-Based Learning @ Truesdell: Project based learning is a teaching technique that allows students to gain deep content knowledge through in-depth units of study that are centered around an investigative problem or question. Students at Truesdell engage in sustained inquiry, seeking content knowledge and skills in order to solve problems. They then share their learning and solutions with the community.
