Update: Social Emotional Learning Legislative Report. Report to the Legislature
Tammy Bolen
Washington Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction
The Washington Social Emotional Learning (SEL) Committee (referred to in this report as "the Committee" and "Committee") was established in 2019 through Senate Bill 5082 (SB 5082) to address the growing body of evidence that shows the need for improving a student's social and emotional competencies which are critical to every child's development and learning. SB 5082--codified in Revised Code of Washington (RCW) 28A.300.477--requires the Committee to submit a progress report to the legislature annually beginning June 1, 2021. The Committee met monthly over the 2023-24 school year to discuss topics that impact SEL in Washington. Committee meeting topics included but were not limited to discussion on the current state of SEL in Washington; the impact of SEL on students, families, communities, and educators; SEL in higher education; SEL assessment and implementation evaluation; school climate; the need for SEL funding; adult SEL capacity building; and culturally sustaining practices.
