Strengthen Adult SEL & Cultural Competence Process

Successful districtwide social and emotional learning (SEL) implementation is more effective when districts also cultivate adults’ SEL and cultural competencies. View process information here.

Equity Connections to SEL Competencies

The CASEL 5 social and emotional learning (SEL) competencies are self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills, and responsible decision-making. They promote intrapersonal, interpersonal, and cognitive competence.

What is SEL

Social and emotional learning (SEL) is the process through which children and adults acquire and effectively apply the knowledge, attitudes, and skills necessary to understand and manage emotions, set and achieve positive goals, feel and show empathy for others, establish and maintain positive relationships, and make responsible decisions.

Integration Process

The systemic integration of social and emotional learning (SEL) into district priorities ensures that it will become a vital component of what makes the district, schools, and students successful. View process information here.
