THE xSELeratED SCHOOLS FRAMEWORK:

A do-able, durable SEL throughline for real schools.

Educators don't need another binder; they need a shared way to talk about, practice, and sustain Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) across classrooms, teams, and calendars. Our xSELeratED Schools Framework offers a plain-spoken, equity-centered throughline built for actual school days-not ideal ones.

At its center are five competencies that anyone in a learning community can name and use: Understanding Myself, Nurturing Myself, Understanding Others, Nurturing Others, and Building a Better World. Around that center, this text provides tools that start with adults and echo to students, so SEL becomes authentic, teachable, scalable, sustainable, and consistent.

Many thoughtful frameworks have made SEL visible and measurable. What sets xSELeratED Schools apart is its fit: human language, modular tools, seasonal pacing, and mirrored resources that make implementation lighter, not heavier. Our framework scales readily from a single grade level to a district or educator-preparation program.

Inside, you'll find:

• A core framework with indicators and rubrics for a common language and spirit of practice
• Adult reflection tools, PLC protocols, and quick-use meeting guides
• Student-ready checklists, journals, and parallel activities that mirror adult learning
• Scenario practice sheets and repair-forward language for real moments of challenge
• Integration maps to weave SEL into the real rhythms of schools without adding "one more thing"
• Guidance for collecting relational data
• Seasonal pacing ideas and implementation outlines you can right-size for your context

Designed for PK-12 teachers, leaders, counselors, teacher-educators, and others, this framework helps school communities speak one SEL language, notice growth, and respond with care-together. Use a page tomorrow or plan a yearlong arc. Start small and build. The work is big; the steps are clear. We walk them together.

Belonging, repair, and contribution aren't extras.

They are the heart of the school and, done right, the center that holds.
