You may have heard the term "SEL" in educational settings. It stands for Social and Emotional Learning, and it is a huge part of what our educators do on a day-to-day, hour-by-hour, and minute-by-minute basis. Of course, academic success is ALWAYS a top priority for us; however, we also realize that helping our students understand and practice social skills among their peers in a safe school setting is essential to their success. To that end, we wanted to share some resources that may help you better understand what SEL is and why it's important!
We hope you'll spend some time with the resources in the link below from the California Department of Education:
