Social Emotional Learning Data In Action at Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD)

Executive Summary
During the spring of 2022, Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) teachers participated in a professional learning community focused on using high-quality SEL assessment data to guide their social-emotional learning (SEL) practices. As a result, in three short months, student SEL measurably improved.
LAUSD’s strategic plan specifies that students will make measurable social and emotional learning progress. In service to that goal, the district has adopted an assessment and uses various SEL resources.
