Why SEL Matters

Empower Every Student and Staff Member

Empower Every Student and Staff Member

Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) matters because it equips students with the skills they need to understand themselves, manage emotions, and build positive relationships. In today’s classrooms, students face increasing stress, distractions, and social challenges that go beyond academics. SEL helps them develop resilience, confidence, and the ability to make responsible decisions. When students feel supported emotionally, they are more engaged, behave better, and perform stronger academically.

RISE offers a wide range of practices and activities that align with all five core competencies of CASEL: self-awareness, social awareness, self-management, relationship skills, and responsible decision-making. This comprehensive coverage ensures that students have opportunities to develop various aspects of their social-emotional skills.

The practices outlined in RISE, such as positive self-talk, resilience through hardship, and decision-making skills, are designed to be actionable and relevant to students' daily experiences, making the learning process more meaningful and impactful.


Enhance Social Skills

  

  • The CASEL competencies for SEL umbrella the “How to” strategies and tools of the R.I.S.E (Resilience. Inspire. Self-Empower) e book and online course. The R.I.S.E course offers practices, activities, assessments, and practical tools for students to understand and apply these essential skills to their lives. The 22 Practices in R.I.S.E correlate with the CASEL 5 Competency Clusters and also meet the 4 strategies to promote SEL with professional development for staff, general teaching practices, and guidance for organizational structures within a school to support students’ social and emotional development as a schoolwide initiative.


  1. Integration with Professional Development and Organizational Support:
    • RISE goes beyond student-focused activities by also addressing the needs of educators, administrators, and the school community. The program includes guidance for general teaching practices, professional development for staff, and recommendations for creating supportive organizational structures that promote social and emotional development school wide. This integration ensures a holistic approach to SEL within the educational environment.




Impact of SEL Skills and Resources

Youth

R.I.S.E's signature youth education program, is a social emotional learning curriculum which gives students the skills to navigate life and prevent bullying and substance abuse.


According to CASEL’s research, students who engaged in SEL interventions academically performed 11 percentile points above those who did not. Additionally, students demonstrated improved classroom behavior, an increased ability to manage stress and depression, and better attitudes about themselves, others, and school. 


Global Statistics


20% of US students ages 12-18 report being bullied.

1 in 3 students said they had been the victim of cyberbullying, and 1 in 5 reported skipping school due to cyberbullying or violence as expressed in a study of students across 30 countries.

2 in 3 students said they are worried about violence in and around schools in a poll of 1 million young people from 160 countries conducted by UNICEF.

More than 1/3 of students have experienced bullying. More than 1/3 have been involved in physical fights.

Statistics from National Crime Victimization Survey and UNICEF



What Young People Learn in R.I.S.E


The National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) recently published the results of a survey of top employers outlining the skills desired in new college graduates. Likewise, the World Economic Forum identified the top skills needed for the jobs of the future. The most necessary and desired skills are not related to any STEM field or technical proficiency. Instead, they are competencies directly related to the social and emotional skills built by R.I.S.E.


  • Problem-solving and decision-making
  • Critical thinking and creativity
  • Ability to work in a team environment
  • Communications skills with people inside and outside an organization
  • Leadership and the ability to effectively motivate others
  • Strong work ethic and resilience.

Youth Thrive with SEL

How school climate affects young people:

  • Students who participate in SEL showed improved classroom behavior, reduced rates of stress and depression, and improved attitudes towards their school, their peers, and their own self-image. SEL programs like R.I.S.E increased students’ academic performance by up to 11 percent.
  • Effects of SEL programs like R.I.S.E are long lasting. Kindergarteners who participate in SEL programs and have stronger SEL skills are more likely to graduate high school, go to college/university, and obtain stable employment as young adults.
  • Including SEL and character development is critical for educating the whole child. This approach can help bridge the achievement gap between students from high- and low-income settings and improve economic mobility for disadvantaged students.
