To succeed in school and in life, students need to master reading, math, and other academic skills. Developing those skills requires that students learn how to learn, both independently and with others. Getting Along Together 2nd Edition (GAT) is a  schoolwide program that helps students build theses kills and apply them both inside and outside of the classroom. GAT teaches students strategies to focus their thinking, manage their behavior, build positive social relationships, and understand and deal with their feelings—all in ways that support learning and life success.
