Skills that stick have to be those 21st century skills. Key reading and writing skills need to be central

Indeed! Citizenship is critical in today's world. How do we learn to disagree but still work toward a solution?

Do more active listening! Allow others to be entitled to their opinion(s).. but still stand firm in what you believe.

But long-term, I'm not sure that's helpful. Focus: skill to show the world who you are. Then they'll see w/o me telling.

Actually I take that back. I misinterpreted the acronym. I can't say that I've had explicit training in SEL.

Both on explicit instruction/curriculum and on creating trauma-sensitive school environment. (Different schools, though...)

Where is your district focusing it's attention? I know mine has been focusing on trauma/trauma-sensitive-schooling.
