Medfield SEL

​The Medfield Public Schools are committed to educating and developing the skills and competencies of the whole child, which includes the fostering of academic, social/emotional, and physical wellness.

Beginning in 2016, The Office of Social Emotional Learning has strived to teach students the values of CASEL’s five core competencies: self-awareness, self-management, responsible decision-making, relationship skills, and social-awareness. Much of this is achieved through curriculum and school-specific programs but a great deal of our work is done “on the ground” as we locate school-specific need and find ways to embed these values into the foundation of MPS.

We do this by helping to create a school community that welcomes and supports a diverse array of academic, social/emotional, and physical needs.

In collaboration with the Guidance Department, the Wellness Department, the Health Office, teachers, the administration, and the Medfield community, we work to maintain and support high academic achievement while concurrently helping students understand and manage emotions, set and achieve positive goals, feel and show empathy for others, establish and maintain positive relationships, and make responsible decisions.
