7TH & 8TH GRADE PARENTS- MOMENTOUS INSTITUTE ARE LEADERS IN THE COMMUNITY!
We recognize that you may be wondering about the program. Momentous Institute says...
§ Momentous Institute is partnering with Uplift Hampton Preparatory this year to deliver a program aimed at improving middle school students’ social and emotional health which ultimately improves academic achievement.
§ Our program focuses on developing children’s skills in self-control, communication, problem-solving, respect for self and others, and mindfulness. We do all of this in an engaging and safe way that kids and teachers love, in your child’s classroom, integrated into classroom content.
§ Momentous Institute would like to have your child complete surveys and computer games that let us know if the program is effective.
§ All of the information you, your child, and the teachers provide is confidential and private. We will not share or publish individual data. The combined data may be presented at conferences or in published articles, but you and your child will never be identified as participants, and we do not name Uplift Hampton as a research site.
§ We hope that you will consider taking part in this study. Your child’s participation will help us to provide the best programming possible for middle school students in the future!
