While students had their first half day of the school year, our teachers participated in professional development led by Dr. Jessica Minahan, co-author of The Behavior Code.
Dr. Minahan’s presentation focused on strategies for supporting students with anxiety, oppositional behavior, and executive functioning challenges. The approach outlined in The Behavior Code offers a systematic way to identify the causes of these behaviors and apply proven techniques to help students succeed.
Educators left with practical, research-based strategies they can use to transform the classroom experience for students facing behavioral and emotional challenges.
All Hingham Public Schools will have an Early Release on Wed. September 18, 2024, for professional development.
⏰Early Release Times:
East - 12:00 PM
Foster - 11:30 AM
Plymouth River - 11:30 AM
South - 12:00 PM
