Social Emotional Learning - Whole Child Framework
-
Cultivating the whole child through academic and SEL standards, allows for success beyond the classroom
It is our belief at New Haven Public Schools (NHPS) that when strong school teams incorporate SEL into the culture of schools, students will have better academic outcomes. Schools with supportive learning environments foster opportunities for students to take risks and learn. District wide integration of SEL standards creates a common language across NHPS learning community. Ensuring fidelity and consistency to SEL practices allows for all students to have an optimal learning experience through cultural variance which supports their social emotional growth.
The Five SEL Standards (CASEL 2017)
