SHAC/SEL Resources

• Student Toolkit: Resources For Everyday Use

One of our SHAC's main focus areas is Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) within our District. This webpage is meant to be a resource for both teachers/staff and students.

According to casel Social and Emotional Learning is described as, "The process through which all young people and adults acquire and apply the knowledge, skills, and attitudes to develop healthy identities, manage emotions and achieve personal and collective goals, feel and show empathy for others, establish and maintain supportive relationships, and make responsible and caring decisions."

In evidence based studies, SEL has showed student gains in areas of:

• Social emotional skills
• Improved attitudes about self and others
• Positive classroom behavior
• Eleven percentile point gain on standardized achievement tests

Student were at less risk of conduct problems and emotional distress.

Teachers benefit from SEL/ Social competence are better able to avoid burnout and stay in the classroom. They do this by:

• Developing and managing nurturing relationships with students
• Serving as behavioral role models for children
• Managing their own emotions.
