Social Emotional Learning

The Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning (CASEL) defines Social Emotional Learning (SEL) as “a set of skills acquired and applied to develop healthy identities, manage emotions, achieve personal and collective goals, feel and show empathy for others, maintain supportive relationships, and make responsible and caring decisions.” There are significant benefits of SEL including improved academic and behavior outcomes. As a result, since 2021, we have partnered with Panorama to administer a SEL screener to our students at the beginning of each semester (September and February).

The screener takes approximately 20 to 30 minutes to complete. The content asks students to self-reflect on Self-Management, Social Awareness, Emotion Regulation, Self-Efficacy, Growth Mindset, and Social-Perspective Taking. Panorama also provides evidence-based interventions, known as Playbook, in response to social-emotional learning results. This unique resource library is based on ideas and input of over 10,000 educators across the world.

Our Behavioral Health Team also provides SEL professional development through two cohorts to support student growth and success.

In this cohort, we dedicate time to do the following: Review data from this past screener, discuss and commit to SEL signature practices, and lastly take a deep dive into Panorama playbook, to select interventions and determine when/where you will be implementing them at your assigned sites. This training is designed for staff that find navigating through the panorama platform easy and are comfortable with leading SEL activities. Participants should include staff determined to use the Panorama playbook to enhance student social emotional learning.

In this cohort, we dedicate time to explore the following: What SEL is and what it is not, why SEL is critical for student success, ensure you can login to your Panorama account and provide support if you cannot, familiarize yourself with the Panorama platform, review the data from this past screener, and introduce Panorama Playbook. This training is designed to provide staff with an introduction to Panorama and student social emotional learning.
