School Support Network Meeting - Somerset County - December 4, 2019

The School Culture and Climate Initiative

Each School Support Network Meeting in Somerset County will begin with coffee and networking, table talks and then a professional development session. This month's topic is described below.
Professional Development Topic: The Importance of Adult Social-Emotional Skills: The Foundation for a Thriving School Community 
This workshop will focus on the important ways that school leaders, teachers, and staff social-emotional skills support students’ own social-emotional skills development and create a positive school climate. The discussion will include a consideration of how adults are role models for student behavior, provide examples of how teacher’s social-emotional strengths can help to create positive classroom climates and positive relationships, and how understanding staff and teacher social-emotional skills is critical for setting students up for success in academic and social-emotional domains. In addition, time will be spent exploring the positive impact strong social-emotional skills can have on the health and wellness of adults in the school community. 
Presenter:
Patricia C. Heindel, Ph.D. Dean, Professional Studies Director, Center for Human and Social Development &amp; the Center's School Culture and Climate Assessment Lab Co-Director, School Culture and Climate Initiative Co-Director, Academy for Social-Emotional Learning in Schools
