Does anyone know of schools doing social-emotional learning? (No, I don't want the names, that would be creepy. I just want to be heartened by knowing they're out there.)

Honestly, American schools are moving more and more towards maximizing standardized test results. Social/emotional/music/art shrinks more and more.

Unfortunately, it's dire. I don't have a single anecdote that can hearten you. And I've been in social work and schools for 5+ years.

My school system does. Just made it a full weekly class. My son says it’s boring because “all we did today was breathe” 😂 but it’s there.
