EmpowerU: Resilience Skills

 

EmpowerU  - An elective course to build student resilience, persistence and success.

Northern Star Online is excited to partner with EmpowerU to bring a proven, data-driven SEL curriculum to students in an effective and meaningful way.  Now more than ever, students need support and skills to engage, learn and focus.  We help them do that in a credit-bearing course.

EmpowerU equips students with the skills to build persistence, resilience and success by pairing interactive daily lessons with 1:1 support from dedicated online instructors. These instructors serve as life coaches and personalize the course content to apply to each student’s goals and barriers.

Over 93% of students who complete EmpowerU report increased confidence and wellbeing, and make meaningful progress towards their goals. 

It has been proven that effective SEL programs increase student’s academic performance, classroom behavior, stress management, and attitudes.
