2024 Summer Program
I have only heard positive feedback regarding Upstart. Upstart is a reading program through Waterford, a private school. It is funded for a few states through a grant. What is the best amount of time to allow your child on the computer? ABC mouse did a study and 15 min. 3 times a week shows benefit. Anything more or less is not as effective. And don't push too early for ABC's, wait until they start asking, "What letter is that?" or "What does that say?" or age 4-5 years.

What are other states doing about this problem?
New Jersey recently incorporated the DREAMS Program, which provides school districts throughout the state with trauma-informed and healing-centered training and resources, including training in the Nurtured Heart Approach.
What is Utah doing for Mental health in our schools?
Here is what Utah is debating right now for our school:
Rep. Mike Petersen, R-North Logan, has proposed a bill that would require all Utah public schools to display framed copies of the Ten Commandments(at least 16 by 20 inches). Critics of the bill, including Rachel Laser of Americans United for Separation of Church and State, say it violates the U.S. Constitution and creates a divisive environment. [Salt Lake Tribune)
What is Utah doing to support teachers? I will be listening today to the Utah State board of Early Educators today at 1pm. I'll let you know next newsletter.
Nurtured Heart Approach
We will celebrate Ground Hog Day at the Hidden School on Feb. 5. We will have a celebration, practice using our manners, and eat donuts with utensils, and watch to see if Phil sees his shadow.
If Candlemas be fair and bright,
Come, Winter, have another flight;
If Candlemas brings clouds and rain,
Go Winter, and come not again.
