My Project

Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) books can make a powerful and lasting difference in students' lives—academically, socially, and emotionally.

The goal of purchasing these books for the school library is to provide students and teachers with SEL books that can teach different skills.

These skills include building self-awareness, teaching empathy and social skills, improving academic performance, supporting resilience and coping, and promoting responsible decision-making that are needed to thrive both in and out of the classroom.

Our students at LPS are among the many students that have been impacted by COVID-19. LPS has a large population of low socio-economic population that do not have many opportunities that other students have available. We are finding that many students are lacking in the necessary SEL skills needed to be successful in the classroom.

This hope is that teachers and students can use these books to teach the necessary SEL skills needed to be successful in life.

Ms. Kombol will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by August 7.
