Local artist Huelove specializes in real time paintings alongside live music.🎵

Pulling inspiration from the room, Huelove joined us for a recent student reflections session to paint as we reflected on each student’s progress and obstacles from the last week.🎨

The result was a moving portrait of a popular hip hop artist our students enjoy.

In the words of a former Aseltine student: “The staff acts like a family. They have some kind of bond with each other.” .
.
Many of our veteran staff have been with us (and working with each other!) for more than 15 years, and we never cease to be amazed by their commitment to our students. The relationships they form with our students provides a level of support that many have not felt before, and they are what keeps many of our kids in the classroom and out of trouble. .

Here’s a throwback glimpse at the faces of Aseltine staff - Halloween style🎃

It’s National Make A Friend Day! .
.
For many of our students, Aseltine is the first time they have felt understood and/or treated as an active participant in their education. In fact, “My friend, ‘Jimmy’” can often be heard in our hallways as staff refer to students and their needs, feelings and next steps. .
.
Everyday we are inspired by the strong, authentic relationships built between our staff and students. These relationships allow for candid conversation that gets to the root of our students’ feelings, history, and, ultimately, what they need to succeed in school, but, more importantly, in life.

They shoot, they score! The Aseltine Eagles are soaring through basketball season🏀

Our students have the opportunity to participate in football, basketball, baseball and now (new this year!) soccer programs throughout the year, learning teamwork, healthy communication, leadership, confidence and the importance of an active lifestyle. .
.
Whether a former or current Eagle, some of our students’ favorite memories are on the court or field.

We couldn’t let Super Bowl weekend pass us by without giving a shoutout to our own superstars - the Aseltine Eagles. .

Their game plan? To always have a ball.🏈

Thanks to the support of a very generous donor we are excited to share that each of our classrooms is now equipped with enough Google Chromebooks for every student.💻
.
.
Especially for our students who have struggled with communication, these Chromebooks will offer new and exciting ways to reinforce and aid in these concepts through text to speech and speech to text apps. Plus, teachers are able to continue the 1:1 attention our students may require beyond the classroom with the ability to view and comment on a student’s work at any time.👍
.
.
We could not be more grateful for our incredible Aseltine community and donors who make every effort to help our students succeed.✨

We approach problem solving differently. . . Stude

We approach problem solving differently. .
.
Students do not just complete tasks and follow a list of steps that has been given to them, they carefully consider the situation, develop a plan, and put it into action. This not only teaches them important scientific principles, it trains them to think like a scientist, giving them the opportunity to master problem solving techniques, decision-making skills, and critical thinking - all while employing the scientific method. .
.
Perhaps most importantly, this approach teaches students to become thinkers, not reactors, in the classroom and in life.

No one says it better than our students and their

No one says it better than our students and their families. .

Our student stories of success bring Aseltine’s “There I couldn’t...here I can.” spirit to life. .

It’s #NationalHobbyMonth. .
.
From legos and boxing, tech, gaming and culinary arts, our students have the opportunity to participate in a variety of clubs and electives. Students learn valuable skills that help prepare them for the workforce, develop healthy outlets, gain exposure to their community, find new hobbies, and so much more through these programs.
.
.
This is the only access many of our students have to such activities, and nothing brings a smile to our faces quicker than seeing their self-confidence soar.🙌

Did you know most people give up their resolutions before January is even over?!

Well, not us! Our goal for the New Year is to reach as many students as possible with our mission to educate and empower them to become critical thinkers of the world. Nurturing and challenging each and every Aseltine student to make life changing transformations is what drives us year after year. .

What are your goals for the New Year?

We celebrated the most wonderful time of the year with a Santa-mental filled day for our students, staff and members of the Aseltine community. From making the rounds with some important helpers to a yummy buffet for all, we embraced holiday cheer, rocked some festive tunes and ate way too much. .
.
Wishing you and yours a very happy holiday season from all of us here at Aseltine School.❤️
