Social Emotional Learning (SEL) at Hahaione
Dear Parents/Guardians,
Hahaione School started teaching the Choose Love program as a SEL curriculum from 2020-2021 school year. All students are learning a lesson with their teacher or the counselor once a week. We are excited to learn the Choose Love Formula that is important to live in a calm and peaceful way. Please join the Choose Love at home, too. If you have any questions, please contact our School Counselor.

Understanding and managing emotions (self-awareness and self-management);
Setting and achieving positive goals;
• Feeling and displaying empathy and compassion for others (social awareness);Establishing and maintaining positive relationships; and,
