Half-Day School Leader Symposium
Social-Emotional Learning and Your School Improvement Goals
Intended Audience: School leaders with members of your school improvement team
2.5-hour session with lunch included. Choose either the morning or afternoon session.
Session Description: Research from the Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning shows that students at schools that prioritize social-emotional learning (SEL) demonstrate significantly improved social and emotional skills, attitudes, behavior, and academic performance that reflect an 11-percentile-point gain in achievement. Effective SEL program implementation is vital to successfully administering a school improvement plan. Join Center for Responsive Schools for a two-and-a-half-hour symposium to learn how to make SEL a focus of your school’s improvement goal to create a learning environment where students and educators thrive.
