Nurtured Heart
The Nurtured Heart Program is designed to change the school culture of Apricot Valley and Las Palmas Elementary Schools to one that engages the positive and strengthens the inner wealth of its students. The Goal of the Nurtured Heart Program is to build the capacity of each school to enhance the emotional resiliency of their students through the school-wide implementation of the Nurtured Heart Approach. According to Certified Nurtured Heart trainers Tammy Small and Louisa Triandis, the Nurtured Heart Approach is “a system of relationship where all energy and attention is directed to what is going right, and little or no energy is given toward negative behaviors or choices.” The program unites students, teachers, and parents in their efforts to build a more positive school community.
