Social and emotional learning has become a common phrase and expectation in education. It has been integrated into education and program quality standards. Yet, how do we teach and foster the competencies with our students? The good news is, as an educator and care-giver, you are probably already doing it. In this session, attendees will review and reinforce their understanding of CASEL’s five social and emotional learning competencies: self-awareness, self-management, responsible decision making, relationship skills, and social awareness and explore best and promising practices and routines to integrate into their expanded learning programs. 


High school is an exciting time for young people. They are understanding who they are and making choices around who they want to become. Some of those choices are easy and some not as much. What we do know is that when young people have a better connection to their social and emotional competencies, they thrive. In this session, we’ll focus on needs of high school students and what we can do to best support them as they grow into adulthood.
