Introduction
Bosque School’s signature WELLBEING program is thoughtfully designed to help students excel academically while fostering their cognitive, social-emotional, physical, and mental health. From grades 6 through 12, WELLBEING is an integral part of every student’s schedule. The program is led by a dedicated team of faculty with specialized expertise in each subject area. With their guidance, students gain a deeper understanding of essential topics beyond traditional academics, honing their twenty-first-century skills with empathy, resilience, and nuance.
Through Bosque School’s WELLBEING program, students are empowered to grow into well-rounded individuals prepared to navigate and contribute meaningfully to the world around them.
Values
Promoting Emotional Intelligence: WELLBEING provides students with the life skills needed to thrive in a dynamic and complex world. Emotional intelligence, or the capacity to be aware of, control, and express one’s emotions and to handle interpersonal relationships judiciously and empathetically, has been proven to be a major marker of a person’s professional success and personal wellbeing.
Cultivating Community: WELLBEING utilizes a variety of methods to help cultivate community both at Bosque and within the wider Albuquerque community. Through service learning and curriculum on Equity, Community, and Culture (ECC), among other learning initiatives, WELLBEING helps students develop the necessary communication skills to talk through differences, value diversity, and see themselves as part of a community that is larger than themselves. This value touches on each letter of the WELLBEING acronym and helps students to be engaged members of the community in shaping the future.
Fostering the Whole Person: To thrive as learners, leaders, collaborators, and contributors, students need to be seen and known as whole people.
