What is SEL?

Social and emotional learning (SEL) is a process through which individuals build awareness and skills in managing emotions, setting goals, establishing relationships, and making responsible decisions that support success in school and in life. Educators, families, business leaders, students, and administrators in Washington State and nationally agree that SEL is essential for students to succeed in school, careers, and life, and should be part of teaching and learning in schools (OSPI).
