ELO Expanded Learning Opportunities
CLUB BEYOND
The Expanded Learning Program uses themes of Bravery, Adventure, Dreams, Music, and Unity to engage students with the legacy of the Buffalo Soldiers. The lesson plans supporting these themes allow students to participate in critical thinking segments, explore their creative abilities, and immerse themselves in discussions of lessons from the past.
Most importantly, our program will instill confidence in our students through the mottos "We can, We Will" and "Ready Forward" to improve their lives and unite with others to make positive contributions to society.

Social Emotional Learning (SEL) is broadly understood as a process through which individuals build awareness and skills in managing emotions, setting goals, establishing relationships, and making responsible decisions that support success in school and in life. When we think of educating the whole child, their social and emotional development must be considered as a part of overall instruction. ELO Expanded Learning Program
