Martin Luther School, an Approved Private School, provides a comprehensive program for students who need emotional support. Our school is designed to allow our students to confidently engage in personalized, purposeful learning, joyfully celebrate individual and collective success, and respectfully challenge self and others to grow. Our mission is to instruct the mind, engage the heart, and empower the will. We use a holistic educational approach to address the academic, social, emotional, and behavioral needs of children in kindergarten, primary, and secondary grades.
Martin Luther School is a Restorative Practices school. This approach to student behavior promotes healthy relationships and positive discipline inside and outside of school. A restorative approach to conflict focuses on solving problems and repairing harm. Our goal is to have our students and staff use it throughout their lives beyond Martin Luther School.
Our faculty and staff are trained in Social and Emotional Learning (SEL), a process in which people understand and manage emotions, set and achieve goals, feel and show empathy for others, establish and maintain positive relationships and make responsible decisions.
Designed to increase students’ self-awareness of their emotions and foster their self-regulation by providing tools to assist them, the Martin Luther School SEL program uses various approaches to help deepen students’ ability to self-regulate.
Our program also teaches students how to recognize a broader range of emotions, gain perspective into how others see and react to their behavior, increase insight, and determine when and how to use problem-solving strategies to cultivate a more caring and self-aware learning environment.
