UnPlugged Programs
UnPlugged from Technology. Reconnecting in Nature.
Club UnPlugged @ The Discovery School
We are UnPlugged from technology and connecting outside in nature. This is a fun, active club focused on enhancing social and emotional growth for K-4th graders.
- Our hands-on, team building games are played outside and led by licensed mental health counselors who model social growth in a positive and encouraging manner.
- Each child has a voice in forming the club activities and their strengths are highlighted during our time together.
- We value individuality and creativity. As we identify skills to practice, we incorporate those into the structure of our games.
- Parent communication is key, each week your child will come home with a summary of our skill building activities and how your child can to practice and teach others their new skill at home.
