K-12 Schools Can Reduce Chronic Absenteeism With This Emotional Intelligence Program

Regardless of how much work educators do to create engaging activities and interesting projects, and encourage participation, if students are absent, they can't reap the benefits.

Chronic absenteeism is often a symptom of a deeper issue. Emotional pain, current or past trauma, or high levels of stress can keep students from attending class regularly. Hope Rising has designed a hope- driven EI curriculum, \"My Best Me\", to build resilient behaviors in students that aid them in overcoming adversity and regulating their emotions.

Hope is one of the strongest indicators for positive life outcomes and achievement, and has been proven to help regulate stress and negative emotions. By practicing skills that build hope and resilience, students are better able to focus on their academic goals.

\"My Best Me\" fosters hope in students with a simple 3-step method: set a positive goal, create an actionable pathway to that goal, and build the willpower needed to achieve it.

Schools using \"My Best Me\" have reported a 44% lower rate of chronic absenteeism, increased student participation, improved classroom relationships, & higher academic achievement.
