Social School Environment
A healthy school environment affects the well-being of students. This includes the emotional and social conditions. The term “school climate” is often used to refer to these conditions. A measure of the quality of school climate is the students’ feeling of safety and connectedness to their school. In a positive and healthy school climate, students feel close to the people there, they are happy to be there, feel a part of their school, believe teachers treat them fairly, and feel personally safe while at school. Intellectual safety is a subset of emotional safety and refers to students’ comfort when they take intellectual risks such as asking questions, making comments, joining groups, and choosing to study difficult topics. Students who attend schools with a positive, respectful climate are able to focus on learning and realize their academic and interpersonal potential (U.S. Department of Education, 1999).

dear mrs hamel i took the hermit crabs home on monday and the moltch it really stinky and my mom said if it’s alright with you we can change the moltch becuase my hermit crab uses the same moltch.
sincerly,
nicolette
Sure you can change the mulch. If I knew that it was stinky on Monday, we could have changed it before you took them home. Thanks for crab sitting! Hope you had a great day off.
Mrs. Hamel
