While I always thought I had SEL "in the bag", I realize I'm not including families and community partners enough, if at all. I am changing that and this is something big I've discovered through this program thusfar.
That was the exact same realization I had! I was so focused on SEL in the classroom and school and hardly thought about the ways to bring in the families. I've seen "outreach" as so common place but extended it to the actually authentic engagement is the next big piece to the puzzle.
