To increase graduation rates among their special educations students, Ms. Thornsbury and her study group partners develop a mental health curriculum that improves resilience and persistence. The curriculum emphasizes emotional stability and provides non-violent options for resolving conflict or stress. Study group participants document their findings and share them with colleagues through conferences.
