Abstract
Teaching students social-emotional skills positively impacts the learning environment in a classroom. This school improvement plan establishes a school wide outline for the training and implementation of social-emotional instruction through Boys Town's Well-Managed Schools curriculum. The plan addresses the need for social-emotional intervention supports and resources for classroom teachers. A review of literature was conducted to support the plan and examines how student behaviors impact classroom learning, recognizes the importance of explicit social-emotional instruction, and delves into how social-emotional interventions improve the classroom learning environment.
