The maturity of students can be challenging to get them to see the importance of the lessons.  Sometimes we are teaching lessons to students we don't have in class and they are less interested in sharing in that setting. 

1. Fostering an environment where students feel safe.
2. Celebrating diversity throughout our school.
3. Modeling appropriate emotional response.

SEL is to help students learn how to deal with their emotions and different factors that can contribute to those feelings.  It also shares ways to cope.
