Forest Hill Elementary School

Project Cornerstone

Our parent volunteers are getting ready to start Project Cornerstone in October.

  The YMCA, Project Cornerstone is a parent-volunteer reading program with the goal of creating an environment on campus (virtually) where caring community adult role models support students social-emotional skills and students over-all feeling valued, respected, and known. Project Cornerstone promotes a common language which is used throughout our school by youth, staff, and parents. Cornerstone fosters the development of Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) skills in youth including: inclusion, diversity, tolerance, problem solving, respect, and conflict resolution. Along with SEL skills, Cornerstone books are specially selected to teach and support the on-campus social-emotional '12 Tools' by way of the books that are read and discussed by volunteers each month. If you would like to become a monthly parent reader, or become involved in other fun roles newly developed this year to support your teacher and classroom, contact your principal or school program Lead.
