Social and Emotional Learning

Foster Student Well-Being, and Academic Success Will Follow

Social and emotional learning (SEL) is the process of learning and applying the knowledge and skills to care for emotions, social relationships, and each individual’s sense of self. SEL has the potential to foster healthy learning environments and address longstanding disparities in student opportunities and outcomes.

Integrating social and emotional learning into the classroom gives educators powerful ways to connect with students. Research shows SEL instruction reduces student stress and anxiety, encourages self-confidence, and can significantly improve academic performance.
