Whole>> Successful programs focus on non-academic curriculum Continued from 5 At St. Paul’s School for Girls, awareness about diet and nutrition are just the start. Wendy Sunderlin, who’s now in her second year as the Baltimore school’s counselor, is pushing a spate of pro- grams that emphasize non-academic curriculum: interpersonal skills, using relationships as a weapon or manipula- tion, exclusion, gossiping, cyber-bully- ing, reducing the negative stigma around mental health, sex education, spiritual education and stress management. Community service is also at the fore, whether it be locally or overseas. This year, students will be creating their own three-minute video public service announcements on wellness topics of their choosing. And Sunder- lin is especially excited to expand a new program where upper-school girls mentor sixth-graders on different top- ics every month, including self-advo- cacy, body image, self-esteem, gender relations, digital citizenship and being safe online. “The holistic approach is taking off,” Sunderlin said. “It’s now starting to catch on at the higher, more ad- MAXIMILIAN FRANZ vanced levels.
