ACS Portrait of a Graduate & Social and Emotional Learning

Many of the critical competencies of Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) can be found embedded within the ACS Portrait of a Graduate (POG). Copious research has shown that a focus on SEL creates a lasting positive impact for students. Positive results include increases in academic achievement and positive social interactions, and decreases in negative outcomes later in life. As we begin the 2020-2021 school year, we are excited to begin planning for implementation.
