Curriculum
At scheduled parent meetings, Family Wellness Coordinator will present Native Wellness Institute's Wellness depicting the Medicine Wheel. Parents will hold discussions about what they learned and how it relates to their modern/contemporary lives today and how the Wellness Medicine Wheel can be applied to themselves and their families. Walking in Balance is the theme to this activity.
A greater sense of awareness and inner wisdom through the teachings of the medicine wheel will help guide youth to “Walk in Balance”. The slogan provides areas for discussion and activity based quarterly cultural meetings.
The desired outcome of this activity will be that youth will increase homework completion which will in turn increase comprehension, test scores, grades and attendance. Parents will help youth by monitoring progress of youth through report cards, progress reports, and parent teacher meetings.
