Social Emotional Learning Hub

Social emotional learning (SEL) is how students learn techniques to process and manage emotions as well as essential social skills. It encompasses everything from goal setting to stress management, and it provides both children and adults with tools they can use to express themselves authentically and appropriately. SEL is critical for building healthy relationships, communicating effectively, and living a meaningful life.
