What is SEL?

SEL is an acronym for social-emotional learning. SEL is a vital component of your child's personal development. Washington state has adopted 6 SEL standards. They are:

1.  Self-awareness: Individual can identify their emotions, personal assets, areas for growth, and potential external resources and supports.

2. Self-management: Individual can regulate emotions, thoughts, and behaviors.

3.  Self-efficacy: Individual can motivate themselves, perservere, and see themselves as capable. 

4. Social awareness: Individual can take the perspective of and empathize with others from diverse backgrounds and cultures. 

5. Social management: Individual can make safe and constructive choices about personal behavior and social interactions. 

6. Social engagement: Individual can consider others and show a desire to contribute to the well-being of school and community.
