The PTA is proud to support Foster City Elementary School's newest social and emotional learning program - Playworks!

 

Playworks' vision is that one day every child in America will get to play - every day!  They are changing school culture by leveraging the power of safe, fun and healthy play at school everyday.  Playworks creates a place for every kid on the playground to feel included, be active and build valuable social and emotional skills.  They offer an essential opportunity for children to explore their imaginations, to connect with other kids, and to stretch and grow physically, emotionally and socially.

 

With hundreds of students out at recess at any time, everyone is leading play.  Adults and Junior Coaches (student leaders) lead organized games, while all other students are welcome to play their own games that extend Playworks' culture of inclusion, healthy play, and healthy communities.  

 

Playworks was a new program last year at Foster City Elementary School, so make sure to look for additional information this year!
