Fully Digital · Social & Emotional Learning + Etiquette for 6th–8th Grade Students

What Makes Social Savvy Different
TM
Middle school isn’t elementary — and it’s not high school either. Social Savvy™ is built for this unique stage of life, when students are navigating friendships, group chats, public spaces, and the pressure to fit in. It combines social-emotional learning, real-world etiquette, and modern life skills into a program that actually resonates with 6th–8th graders — and is easy for schools to roll out without extra prep.
​
​Here’s what every Social Savvy™ teacher gets:
-
Teacher’s Guide (Step-by-Step): Detailed discussion prompts, role-play instructions, and pacing support designed for middle school classrooms or small groups.
-
Student Books & Printables (by Grade): Custom activity sets for 6th, 7th, and 8th graders so lessons feel age-appropriate, not one-size-fits-all.
-
Slide Decks: Engaging, ready-to-use visuals that guide teachers through each module.
-
Task Cards & Interactive Games: Hands-on practice with realistic scenarios — from joining a group to handling drama.
-
Parent Letters: Extend the learning home with simple conversation starters and reinforcement.
-
Certificates: Celebrate growth with recognition that feels meaningful to students.
With Social Savvy™, you don’t just get curriculum. You get a program that makes middle schoolers feel seen, respected, and ready for the social challenges of today’s world.

Social Savvy
TM
Social Savvy™ is a complete four-level, 40-module SEL and etiquette program designed specifically for middle school. From first impressions and friendships to digital manners and dining skills, each level grows with students across 6th, 7th, and 8th grade—helping them build real-world confidence now and life skills they’ll carry into high school and beyond.
A Note from the Founder
“Middle school is messy — and that’s exactly why I created Social Savvy™. As a certified teacher and etiquette consultant, I saw students struggling with group chats, friendships, and public behavior in ways that no worksheet or canned SEL program could reach. Social Savvy™ gives teachers practical tools and students real-life scenarios they actually face. It’s about giving kids the confidence to handle middle school now — and the life skills they’ll carry into high school and beyond.”
Nicole Rose, Founder of Poised & Proper
