Whether it’s making friends, managing conflicts, or expanding social circles, these skills play a crucial role in a child’s emotional and social well-being. Some of the counselors at MPCS gathered to discuss what social skills look like at various stages of development, the common struggles children face, and how parents can help nurture these skills at home. Here are some key takeaways. ![friendsMPCS8280](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hs-fs/hubfs/friendsMPCS8280.jpg?width=780&height=439&name=friendsMPCS8280.jpg) [![5 Ways Christians Can Respond to Bullying](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hubfs/Shelton%20High%20Fives.jpg)](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/5-ways-christians-can-respond-to-bullying) ## [5 Ways Christians Can Respond to Bullying](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/5-ways-christians-can-respond-to-bullying) November 09, 2023 Bullying is a pervasive issue affecting millions worldwide. It’s a problem that transcends age, gender, and social status. While it manifests in various forms, the core elements of bullying remain consistent: the intentional infliction of harm - often through physical, verbal, or psychological means - on an individual who feels powerless to defend themselves. As Christians, it’s up to us to lead the charge on shaping a more compassionate and loving society to help prevent and stop bullying.    ![Shelton High Fives](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Shelton%20High%20Fives.jpg?width=845&height=475&name=Shelton%20High%20Fives.jpg) [![From the Teacher's Desk: Building Community One 'House Block' at a Time](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hubfs/IMG_3023%20(1).jpg)](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/building-community-in-middle-school) ## [From the Teacher's Desk: Building Community One 'House Block' at a Time](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/building-community-in-middle-school) July 12, 2023 While school “houses” are well-known across Europe and have been popularized in film, community-building house systems are steadily making their way across the pond to American schools. Mount Paran Christian School finished another year of its middle school House system and shares lessons learned, key wins, and future plans for the program.   ![IMG_3023 (1)](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hs-fs/hubfs/IMG_3023%20(1).jpg?width=844&height=475&name=IMG_3023%20(1).jpg) [![Giving Thanks in All Things](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hubfs/249907982_4821491371235758_2355765835324364402_n.jpg)](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/giving-thanks-in-all-things) ## [Giving Thanks in All Things](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/giving-thanks-in-all-things) November 17, 2021 *“Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”* —1 Thessalonians 5:18 Happy Thanksgiving! This is truly one of the best times of the year. There’s so much to love and appreciate - the fantastic weather, football, and, of course, the food and family. So, where are you when it comes to being thankful? How can we make the most of this season and model an “attitude of gratitude” to those around us? ### **![249907982_4821491371235758_2355765835324364402_n](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hs-fs/hubfs/249907982_4821491371235758_2355765835324364402_n.jpg?width=845&name=249907982_4821491371235758_2355765835324364402_n.jpg)** [![CommUNITY: How Do We Love One Another?](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hubfs/blogMPCS8020.jpg)](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/how-to-love-one-another) ## [CommUNITY: How Do We Love One Another?](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/how-to-love-one-another) September 23, 2020 *As a continuation of the "Campaign for CommUNITY",  Head of High School and Assistant Head of School Tawanna Rusk shares her thoughts on how to best #LoveOneAnother — the theme for this school year.

These instructors have agreed to extend their expertise to a summer blog series exploring various aspects of Christianity. First up, “Why Christianity?” will explore the Christian faith and how it differs from other theologies.* Teachers hear hundreds of questions a day. Some questions are quick and easy: “Can I sharpen my pencil?” or “What is today’s date?” Others, however, stop you in your tracks: “Why did this have to happen to me?” or “What do I do now?” The truth is, as students grow older, teachers become the arbitrators of questions. As we mediate these inquiries, they are joined by a chorus of questions within ourselves. There are times when the “maybes” become overwhelming, leaving a feeling of desperation for certainty, for guarantees.   ##### ![WideHandsSED](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hs-fs/hubfs/WideHandsSED.jpg?width=844&name=WideHandsSED.jpg)  [1](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/topic/bible-curriculum-middle-school/page/1) ## *WingTips* Welcome to *WingTips*, a Mount Paran Christian School Blog.
