Last Wednesday, the Ramsey K-12 Wellness and Guidance Departments hosted an innovative session on social-emotional learning (SEL) with physical education professionals from Westwood, Mahwah, and Saddle River, sponsored by the American Heart Association.
Why it matters: Integrating wellness into physical education helps students build resilience, self-belief, and social connections.
Resilience: Learning how to overcome challenges on and off the field.
Self-Belief: Developing confidence to set and achieve goals.
Social Connections: Strengthening teamwork and empathy through active play.
What they’re saying: “By collaborating with our surrounding districts, Ramsey students benefit from the most current, evidence-based strategies for supporting the ‘whole child.’ When students believe in themselves, there is no limit to what they can achieve.” — Dr. Molly Dinning, Director of Student Support Services.
A huge thank you to the American Heart Association and our visiting educators for a morning of growth and inspiration! 👏
