Integrate Student Supports with SEL

By integrating SEL into student support services through a Multi-Tiered System of Support (MTSS), schools are better equipped to ensure that all students have what they need to succeed.

Model for Staff

When each staff member models social awareness by expressing their appreciation for their peers’ efforts, a culture of appreciation is created.

How it Works

This process helps schools create an environment that supports students in developing the academic, social, and emotional competencies that they need to navigate the world.

Establish Discipline Policies that Promote SEL

When discipline policies and practices are supportive, developmentally-appropriate, and equitable, they reinforce SEL and support stronger relationships, student engagement, and equitable outcomes.

Equity and SEL

SEL is a powerful lever for creating caring, just, inclusive, and healthy communities that support all individuals in reaching their fullest potential.

Explore the indicators of schoolwide SEL

Schoolwide SEL is a systemic approach to integrating academic, social, and emotional learning across all school contexts. This approach provides a learning environment that infuses SEL into all aspects of instruction and promotes equitable outcomes for all students, and is evidenced by these indicators.

Integrating SEL into Staff and Grade-Level Meetings

SEL practices help improve collaboration and can be embedded into any meeting where staff comes together to help build collaboration. Practices may include intentional opportunities to connect personally, interact in meaningful ways, share appreciations, or take time for reflection.
