Social and emotional learning (SEL) is the heart of the classroom. It provides an ongoing foundation for students that provides positive learning and safety. SEL helps develop and acquire the necessary skills to set and achieve goals; manage and understand their emotions; show empathy for others; make responsible decisions and establish-maintain and restore relationships. It helps enhance a students' ability to be successful not just in school, but also in life.
