International Social Emotional Learning Day on March 10th is a way to celebrate the way SEL is “Uplifting Hearts, Connecting Minds.” Studies show SEL reduces stress and promotes self-regulation, self-awareness, social awareness, decision-making, and relationship building. Here are some specific examples of how SEL can positively impacts students:
Higher levels of empathy
Increased social confidence
Better attitude about school
More responsible decisions
Better recognition of emotions
When your student is recognizing difficult emotions and would like help finding a mental health care provider for them, use Care Solace, a complimentary and confidential care coordination service provided by La Grande School District:

Our goal is for our students to have uplifted hearts and connected minds!
