🌟 Building Social-Emotional Skills Together! 🌟

ESU #3 team members recently had the opportunity to support Springfield/Platteview staff at their Preschool Parent Night! 💛

Families explored the Pyramid Model and learned practical ways to continue building and embedding important social-emotional skills at home. From engaging activities to meaningful conversations, the evening was all about learning, collaborating, and strengthening connections between school and home.

We loved spending time with families and supporting their journey in helping young children grow socially and emotionally! 🧡

💙 Community partnerships make a difference!

ESU 3 is proud to collaborate with the Nebraska Diaper Bank to help provide diapers to the children and families we serve. 🧷👶

For families experiencing diaper need, having enough diapers can be a significant challenge—and access to basic necessities can make a meaningful difference in a child’s health, comfort, and well-being.

We are grateful to the Nebraska Diaper Bank for partnering with us to help ensure that the children in our communities have access to this essential resource. Together, we’re supporting families, removing barriers, and helping children thrive. 💙

Thank you, Nebraska Diaper Bank for helping us care for the whole child and the whole family!

By feeling the different textures on tree bark, children will improve their tactile awareness and fine motor skills. This activity not only builds sensory skills but also fosters curiosity about the natural world and the wonders trees provide.
