Achieving Positive Outcomes Together

The MBAwareness Educational Program teaches practices that develop children’s capacities for focusing attention and regulating emotions and kindness, all to improve well-being and encourage success in school and life. As students practice, they are developing the skill of sustaining attention, even in the face of distractions. Attentional skills are vital in the academic environment.

Let’s make this year different. Good different.

Get Ready

It is time to send home the Parent Letter and Media Release form. Please send these home as soon as possible. It is our hope that they will be returned with signatures prior to our start date. Please keep a checklist of the signed Media Release form to ensure that we have one from each child. We will collect and make a copy of these forms at the start of the program. 

Additionally, it is time to give your students in grades 2-4 the Pre Assessment. (Grades K-1 do not take the pre-assessment!) Each student will need a computer and the link to our assessment: https://safety.mindbodyalign.com/mansfield-city-schools-mbawareness-pre-assessment-grades-2-5/

This link can be added to your Google Classroom for easy access by the students. We ask that you administer the assessment as you would a standardized test. Please, read the questions to the students as they choose the best answer, and have the pre-assessment completed by the end of our first week of classes. It is best to administer before the SEL classes begin. If your students are not skilled in Google Classroom, we have other options for administering the assessment. Please contact me for those suggestions. [email protected] I am very happy to help you with this process.

DELAY DAYS and SNOW DAYS? If MCS has a delay or a snow day, all MBAwarenss classes will be canceled and will resume with the next regularly scheduled class.  

Missed a lesson? We’ve got you covered! Just find the lesson video below. We will post the next day.
