Children Must Be a National Priority
No higher cause can trump that obligation – not a church, and
certainly not a football program. And not even a lifetime of heroism can make up for leaving a single child
alone, abandoned to evil, weeping in the dark.
- Ross Douthat (2011)

The more SEL promotes these capacities, the better off the world will be!
Manhood that is rooted in a sense of humanity, in peace, in love, in nonviolence, in honesty and
transparency, in constant self-criticism and self-reflection, and in respect and honor of women and
girls, again, as our equals.- Kevin Powell (2011)

Some [people] see things as they are and ask why.

Key Questions and Core Beliefs
1. Are people with better social and emotional skills more likely to succeed in school and life?
2. Can social and emotional skills be taught?3. Will children be better prepared for college and life if
we teach social, emotional, and academic skills?4. How can we ensure that teachers teach social and
emotional skills effectively?5. Can research inform educational practice and policy?6. Can a group of SEL collaborators improve the
education of pre-K to 12 students across the US?

Essential Questions Each Community Must Answer
What do we want our children to be, to know, and to be able to do when they graduate?
How can the entire community be organized to ensure that all students reach the stated goals?

1997: CASEL Defines the Field of SEL
![Page 19: Promoting the Social, Emotional, and Academic Learning of Millions of Young People Roger P. Weissberg Novo Foundation Endowed Chair in Social and Emotional](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032706/56649dde5503460f94ad756b/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
What is Social and Emotional Learning?
Social and emotional learning (SEL) is a process through which children and adults learn to recognize and manage emotions, demonstrate care and concern for others, develop positive relationships, make good decisions, and behave ethically, respectfully, and responsibly.

Principals’ Responses
The training I received from CASEL has taught me to recognize the relationship between my feelings and my job performance as a school leader.
I am definitely more in touch with my values as an educator as a result of working with SEL at my school. I realize that it is not just about academics; rather we are responsible for nurturing the entire child and SEL assists us in doing that.
![Page 33: Promoting the Social, Emotional, and Academic Learning of Millions of Young People Roger P. Weissberg Novo Foundation Endowed Chair in Social and Emotional](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032706/56649dde5503460f94ad756b/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Effectiveness of SEL Worldwide
Failure or refusal to adopt and appropriately support the implementation of SEL/SFL programmes is equal to depriving children and youngsters of crucial and scientifically substantiated opportunities for their personal, social and academic development.
This would be a flagrant violation of the United Nations Convention of Children’s Rights.

Supported by federal and state policies, leadership, and professional development
SEL is doable Good results from programs run by existing
