- W237704416 abstract "School-age children are currently experiencing tremendous family change and loss. It is estimated that onethird of American children will spend the first 18 years with only one parent, one in 20 will lose a parent by death before 18, one in five families will move each year (Hayes, 1984) and as of 1990, one in three children under 18 has divorced parents (Cantrell, 1986). Other studies acknowledge the large numbers of children who also experience the deaths of, or separation from siblings, grandparents, pets, and friends through illness, accidents, deployment, and nonfamilial custodial care (Considine & Steck,1994: Glass,1991; Holland,1993:Nelson,1977). School personnel have increasingly become concerned about these children, who often have difficulty coping with the school environment after a loss and exhibit behaviors such as lack of concentration, inability to complete tasks, fatigue, excessive displays of emotion, withdrawal, and aggressiveness (Fox Valley Hospice, 1987; Glass, 1991; Holland,1993; Oates,1993;Webb 1993). Fortunately, adults who work with children in schools are coming to believe is a normal reaction to loss, whether a person, place, thing or idea (Fox Valley Hospice,1987, p 1) and to recognize that all the losses children face should be grieved. (Glass,1991; Holland,1993; Jewett,1982 Webb,1993).There is also acknowledgment that schools should offer support for students experiencing loss (Considine & Steck,1994; Glass, 1991; Guthrie, 1992; Holland, 1993) and that schools should consider such support a valid part of the school's mission to children in areas of academic and life skills and guide children through difficult life experiences (Webb, 1993, p.217). The literature reflects the ways schools have responded to the needs of grieving children. Many have appropriately formed crisis action teams in case of a death or other related loss (Guthrie,1992; Oates,1993;Webb,1993;Wenckstern, 1993). School counselors and psychologists are offering individual and group counseling for bereaved children (Glass,1991; McGlauflin, 1992; Moore & Herilihy, 1993). Other sources suggest training and educational materials for teachers and other school staff (Considine & Steck, 1994; Fox Valley Hospice,1987;Webb,1993;) or encourage schools to incorporate death and change education into the classroom (Considine & Steck, 1994; Lagorio, 1993; Nelson, 1977; Westmorland,1996). Although schools need to be prepared for death-related crises, to offer bereavement support for students after a death, and to educate students and staff about death and grief issues, helping children grieve at school should mean more than addressing the needs of students grieving a death. An equally important goal should be to create a school climate that is sensitive to the significant number of children experiencing loss regularly and, presumably, grieving some sort of family separation and change. With these goals in mind, helping children grieve at school means raising an entire school's awareness of the regularity of loss and grief and how the grief process effects all the community's members. By integrating an understanding and acceptance of grief, schools can reach the children already grieving, and teach nongrieving children that the grieving process is a natural and normal response to loss. This article addresses important considerations for counselors, teachers, and school personnel interested in helping all children grieve by honoring and integrating the grief process into a school.Three areas vital to affecting an entire school climate will be emphasized: Being knowledgeable about the grief process Being open to the grief process Integrating the grief process into the daily operations of a school BEING KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT THE GRIEF PROCESS To successfully and comfortably integrate the grieving process into a school community, both the adults and the children of the community should become knowledgeable about the grief process (Glass, 1991; Holland, 1993; Nelson, 1977;Westmorland, 1996). …" @default.
