A growing number of school districts have reorganized their central offices to reflect the need to integrate social and emotional learning (SEL) with academics, broadly defined to include professional learning and teaching and learning.

This first edition of SEL Trends spotlights the SEL approaches of Cleveland, Austin, and Baltimore.
