Carlisle SHINES was recognized as an Exemplary program by the Shippensburg University Superintendent Study Council.
Mr. Seth Roper, High School Social Studies teacher and football coach, has instilled a true passion in helping and supporting students through times of loss. The Carlisle SHINES program stands for Support, Hope, Included, Non-judgmental, Encouraging and Strength. SHINES provides students a support group to help them cope with the struggle of losing someone close. SHINE provides students to acknowledge that they are not in this alone, as well as different strategies to help them individually when they have those alone moments. The students meet weekly to learn strategies to positively make changes with their own mental health.
