Peer Resource Leaders Conflict Management
      Intervention

      
In our efforts to support students at Joseph
      Kerr, and at the same time, teach them strategies for solving
      conflicts in a positive way, the Counseling Department has created
      the Peer Resource Program.

      
This selected group of 16 students participated
      in a 3 week long, after school training course in listening,
      communicating, helping, and problem solving skills so they may
      better help their peers resolve conflicts that may interfere
      with the learning environment at school. The students have practiced
      their skills by participating in games, direct instruction lessons,
      and role-plays to better enhance their skills as conflict managers.
      Our program is officially up and running, and ready for you to
      use as a resource here at school to support our students.

      
Our Peer Resource Leaders are available during
      each period of the day. Request forms for the Peer Resource Program
      are located up in the front office. If you have any questions,
      please contact one of the counselors for further explanation.

      
The Peer Resource Leaders will also be involved
      in other important, upcoming school programs, such as:

      Increase in Attendance program 

      Safe School Ambassadors

      Peer Intervention Education

      Conflict Leaders

      
Thank you for your support for this new and
      very important program for our students
