exSEL Summer Institute

During the 2020-21 school year, we brought schools and districts together to collectively navigate the complexities of schooling during the COVID-19 pandemic. While we’re thankful to be shifting further away from high alert pandemic status, we know schools are still left trying to figure out how to press the reset button on a collectively traumatizing experience. This year, more than ever, it’s critical to start the school year right. Our team has been working to design an experience for educators and school leaders that gives school teams space to thoughtfully collaborate and plan for reopening your doors for the 2021-2022 school year.

We’d like to invite you to our exSEL Summer Institute, Rowing Together: Moving Your School Community Forward with Social Emotional Learning. This 2-day institute gives school teams the time and resources they need to focus on building supportive, affirming, and joyous school communities. Following the Institute, we will provide coaching throughout the fall 2021 semester. This is a learning experience you won’t want to miss! Click here to learn more and register for exSEL Summer Institute.

*This opportunity is open to all K-12 schools in the New England region
(traditional public, charter, parochial, etc.)*

What is exSEL?

The exSEL Network was founded in 2017 by the Rennie Center, Transforming Education, and the exSEL Coalition—whose members include the Massachusetts Association of School Committees, Massachusetts Association of School Superintendents, Massachusetts Organization of Educational Collaboratives, and Massachusetts School Administrators Association. exSEL partners with schools and districts to support students’ social-emotional development through changes in policy and practice at the district, school, and classroom levels.
