2nd Quarter Conflict Management Challenge Champs

How can you solve a conflict without making others mad?  Is that even possible?

That’s what 8th graders have just recently learned about in Career Management class.  What better way to learn than to put your newly acquired skills to the test through the Conflict Resolution Challenge! Students were split into groups and given 3 different scenarios, or conflicts, to solve using both common sense and conflict management strategies they learned in class.

And now for our winners….drum roll please!!!!
