Systemic Social and Emotional Learning
Systemic Social and Emotional Learning
SEL can be more than just a 30-minute lesson. A systemic approach to SEL intentionally cultivates a caring, participatory, and equitable learning environment and evidence-based practices that actively involve all students in their social, emotional, and academic growth. This approach infuses social and emotional learning into every part of students’ daily lives—across all of their classrooms, during all times of the school day, and when they are in their homes and communities.

During our time apart from our students and families, distance learning has been how we have stayed connected. Until we come back together, we will need to ensure that we take care of our hearts and minds during this distant time. Therefore, here at K. B. Polk want to ensure that our students and families have the support they need to maintain good social and emotional health. Please take a moment to look and interact with videos and activities to guide your families with some SEL techniques.
