As we prepare for graduation season at the end of this challenging school year, consider what it means for students to be ready for the future. What should we have prepared students to know and be able to do so they achieve their goals and become caring, civically-engaged members of their communities? To answer these questions, many school districts and state departments of education develop a “Graduate Profile” to document their community’s shared vision of the social, emotional, and academic skills that all students will learn.
On International #SELDay, co-hosts Urban Assembly and SEL4US are teaming up with CASEL to discuss how Graduate Profiles can cultivate meaningful school experiences and how social and emotional learning can strengthen our vision of future-ready graduates. Celebrate #SELDay by hearing from leaders about why and how they adopted a Graduate Profile and join us in imagining what’s possible when all young people are socially, emotionally, and academically prepared for their futures.
How can federal policy support state efforts to foster positive youth skill development and overall mental health? The pre-K to Grade 12 education system has been tested in unprecedented ways over the past year, and educators, leaders, students, and their families have stepped up to the challenge in unique and innovative ways. One key lesson is the importance of centering social and emotional development and well-being to help students and adults navigate virtual and in-person learning, especially while working through trauma. In this briefing, students, members of Congress, and experts in child development will discuss the importance of social emotional learning (SEL) concepts and how they can be advanced through federal policy.
This briefing is being co-hosted by America Forward, Committee for Children, Harmony SEL at National University, Learning Policy Institute, and Urban Assembly.
