SEL Programs: Essential to the Safety and Security of Districts

In order to ensure the safety and well-being of students, it’s imperative that schools tie in social and emotional learning (SEL) programs. These programs help students better understand how to manage their emotions, consider the feelings of others, and learn important social skills. They also help alert educators to any students who may be struggling with depression, bullying, unhealthy relationships, or other issues.

 View the recording as Dr. Joe Erardi, a retired superintendent from Newtown, Connecticut, shares lessons learned from the December 2012 tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School. This interactive session includes best proactive practices, the importance of high-level partnerships pertaining to safety, and the critical need to have K-12 SEL programming understood by all within the district.
