Brick by Brick: A Leader’s Guide to Building SEL in Schools

The interactive in-person workshop will introduce school leaders and aspiring school leaders to a structured approach for integrating social and emotional learning (SEL), character development, school culture and climate, and culturally responsive education into their schools. Participants will explore four foundational building blocks that create an inclusive, supportive, and academically thriving environment for students.

Through discussions, activities, and assessments, attendees will:

• Identify the key components of high-quality SEL/SECD at the district, school, and classroom levels and understand its critical role.
• Develop strategies for organizing and leading a cross-role stakeholder team to enhance SEL implementation and school climate.
• Examine the role of equity in SEL leadership and decision-making.

Participants will leave the training with a clear vision of the scope of the course and an understanding of the foundational principles and their own leadership strengths and strategies to transform their schools into engaging student-centered learning environments.
