In Austin ISD, SEL and CP&I together advance educational equity and excellence through authentic school-family-community partnerships. Culturally proficient and inclusive SEL can help address various forms of inequity by empowering young people and adults to co-create thriving schools and contribute to safe, healthy, and just communities. Our goal is to use and grow our social and emotional skills while creating brave, respectful, collaborative spaces to support all students, staff, families, and communities throughout our district.
