A 501c3 organization working to improve the climate in Philadelphia's public schools through sustainable school-wide programming for teachers and students.
Why teach mindfulness when kids need to learn to read, write and do arithmetic, when they need to learn about history and heritage, when they need to learn a skill, craft or vocation? #schoolmindfulnessproject#supportmindfulnessinschools
In Fall 2023, K-12 NYC public school students will engage in two to five minutes of mindful breath work each day! Mayor Eric Adams said, “we think that it’s just, air goes through your nostrils and you move. No, there’s a science to breathing...” We couldn't agree more!
Join us for the Global Mindfulness in Education Summit - June 4-9th as Dr. Chris Willard and Dr. Helen Maffini interview experts worldwide. Gail Silver, Founder & CEO of The School Mindfulness Project will be there discussing Mindfulness in Education!

This just in: "Mindfulness is the Best Part of our Week" says 4th grade school teacher at Allen M. Stearne School. We at SMP say, now that you have the tools, let it be the best part of your day.
When they are young, children love to smile and readily respond to compassion. We must find ways to keep these qualities alive so they maintain a compassionate attitude and learn how to tackle anger as they grow up. Time at school should include methods to achieve peace of mind
This #givingtuesday, you can give the kids of Philly's underserved schools a chance to be stronger, healthier, brighter and happier. Work together with us and donate to The School Mindfulness Project. https://t.co/N0s73wASTZ
I know everyone's excited about the Phillies, but we're excited about this email: "We're so lucky to have the SMP at Stearne. Every class seems to really being enjoying the program—we can’t wait to see all of the growth from our scholars!" Alyssa Razon, Stearne Teacher Leader.
Alas, twenty classrooms across two Philly schools are ready for the SMPeaceful learning games to begin. It all starts this week, with lesson #1 when students discover "Oh, the many ways we can Meditate!"
One Mindful Teacher Immersion + One Mindful Classroom Community Training + One Mindful Teacher Training=SMPeace for participating students and teachers @KendertonSchool and @AcademiaCharter
This mindful pause can transform your relationship with yourself, your loved ones and the world at large (and you don't have to wait for Thanksgiving to enjoy it). Happy Thanksgiving from the School Mindfulness Project. #mindfulness#theschoolmindfulnessproject
