Norman,United States - October 3, 2022 /PressCable/ —
The non-profit organization, whose ‘My Best Me’ curriculum promotes an atmosphere of trust, respect, and active dialogue and seeks to empower children facing adverse life situations, has now released a sample lesson available online.

Hope Rising’s newly available sample chapter allows teachers, parents, school administrators, and superintendents the opportunity to review the material being offered, and to see why it can prove such a powerful tool in their districts. The organization’s curriculum is based on the influential Social Emotional Learning framework, in combination with the science of hope, as defined by Dr. Chan Hellman and his research colleagues across the country. Modules are available for elementary school through 12th grade.
The organization claims that hope is the single best predictor of a child’s ability to thrive. In psychology, hope is a cognitive strategy that includes deliberately defining goals and making an effort to achieve them. People who are hopeful can create objectives, determine the path forward, and believe they can put in the effort necessary to succeed. In juvenile populations, increased hope has been found to be more beneficial than a variety of mental health interventions. A large nationwide study of students before the pandemic found only about 45% reported being hopeful.
Hope Rising’s unique methodology, which integrates the idea and practice of hope into an SEL-based curriculum, offers educators the tools they need to help build students’ character and sense of self-confidence. Students that have higher levels of hope perform better academically, have more mature social and emotional skills, and create closer relationships with their classmates.
This results in almost 70% fewer suspensions/expulsions, an over 80% reduction in dropout rates, and improved academic performance and graduation rates. Since hope can act as a buffer against stress and adverse experiences at home or in the community, reducing misbehavior and strengthening their identity, the real-world impact can be significant and educators are beginning to take notice.
A variety of multimedia, age-appropriate lessons are included in the curriculum to promote student involvement, cooperation, engagement, and open communication. For greater convenience and accessibility, all grade-level materials in the ‘My Best Me’ program are offered in both digital and printed formats.
“Our goal is to help both the children and the communities they live in – it’s a symbiotic process,” said an organization spokesperson. “If the children thrive they will grow up to become more active and responsible members – and even guardians – of their communities.”
