Henry B. Milnes Elementary

Milnes is full of PAWsitivity!

The Fair Lawn School District and Care Plus NJ Inc. have a continued partnership to bring state of the art behavioral healthcare services to students and families in the school setting. Throughout the month of December, all our elementary school students will be participating in a school wide lesson titled “We are all different, we are all the same.” This lesson will be conducted in their classroom by our school building Care Plus clinician, Ms. Small. During this lesson students will watch the video “Acceptance is my Super Power” along with a discussion about the ways that students can be different. Following this discussion, students will create a puzzle piece all about what makes them special and unique. The class lesson will conclude with a conversation about how our differences make our classroom complete. The puzzle pieces will be put together on display in their classroom to remind students that their differences are all an important piece of their classroom community. Should you have any further questions regarding this lesson, please feel free to contact clinical program manager Stephanie Domnitz at sdomnitz@fairlawnschools.org.
