Teach social-emotional competence—the foundation of school and social success—with the NEW editions of the Strong Kids™—Grades 9–12 curriculum! Strong Kids is the fun and easy way to help your students develop the social-emotional skills they need to manage their challenges and succeed in school and life.

Reviews
Paul Caldarella, Associate Professor, Brigham Young University
“My colleagues and I have conducted several studies on the curricula in the Strong Kids series and have been impressed with how easily public school educators have been able to implement these with fidelity. We have also documented improvements in students’ internalizing symptoms (e.g., anxiety and depression) following implementation of Strong Kids, particularly for at-risk students. We look forward to using the updated curricula in future studies.”
Lori Ernsperger, Executive Director of Behavioral Training Resource Center
“The authors of the Strong Kids 2nd Edition tackle an important topic for educators: Social Emotional Learning. The series is highly recommended and will prove invaluable to school professionals with structured lesson plans and supplementary materials to help all students succeed.”
