Crew

Crew is made up of small group of students who meet weekly with an adult advisor (their crew leader) to engage in a process for checking-in, team-building, sharing, and discussion of critical issues. Students remain in the same crew for all three grades during their time at MAELS. The extraordinary relationships that this arrangement fosters will promote a lifelong ring of friendship and trust.

At MAELS, Crew is a safe space where the unique identity of each member is honored and valued. Through structures and strategic planning, students develop meaningful relationships with each other and with their crew leader. Students are empowered to serve as a catalyst for positive change in school and society. A crew supports and celebrates academic and social emotional growth of all members.
