Role of Caregivers
Social-emotional learning does not only take place in the classroom, it happens at home too. As a caregiver, you are helping your children develop both socially and emotionally every day. Schools and caregivers can work together to continuously provide positive social-emotional opportunities for your child that can encourage them to feel good about themselves, develop self- confidence, and learn to form secure relationships with others. Positive social-emotional learning helps to create a strong and healthy foundation for future academic success.

Caregivers can partner with schools to promote children's social and emotional learning through different ways.
