We've always had SEL in schools. It was called recess, play, & classes like Music, Art, Physical Education.But they have been taken away or reduced to spend more time on testing, & then we wonder why students lack social/ emotional skills & misbehavior that come with lack of it.

Teacher effectiveness is not greatly improved by curriculum, new programs, or initiatives. But, when teachers are respected, valued, supported, & feel like their talents are utilized, then morale increases, job engagement soars, & students benefit too!
Please don't remove students from physical education, music, Arts, or other classes to remediate them in other areas. This will not help them be successful long term and will cause them to hate school in the short term. Be strength focused more than weakness focused.
Pretty awesome to see 3 swimmers from 3 different schools perform the national anthem together! 🇺🇸
