Who We Are: Social Emotional Learning

We understand that we’re different here at SCVi! Some terminology that we use has become second nature to those that have been part of the team for years, while some of you newly onboard may be shaking your heads wondering what we’re talking about. We hope to inform you weekly about our culture and terminology to help guide you through your time here at SCVi.  

This week: Social Emotional Learning (SEL)

At iLEAD Schools, we maintain a unique emphasis on using methods that foster our learners’ social-emotional development and personal strengths. We are committed to ensuring our students learn to lead, be self-directed, and develop their emotional IQ in a way that inspires creativity and engagement in their coursework. We believe it’s vital to help students develop skills like social awareness, self-management, regulation of emotions, and early self-awareness early so they can begin to weave these abilities through every facet of their lives.

SCVi, a free public charter school, is part of the iLEAD Schools is a network charter schools throughout California, the Midwest, Colorado, and Hawaii. iLEAD empowers learners to become conscientious, compassionate, and responsible citizens of the world, and inspires them to become creative thinkers and leaders with a lifelong love of learning.
