I encourage you to read the SEL document completely. Written into the language is a systematic drive to teach children what groups they belong to, how those groups differ, what those groups have and don’t, and what you will be capable of or limited to based on your group. That is the definition of bias and racism. The very concepts SEL pretends to be against. It is wrong to label individuals to a group and then presume attributes and weaknesses for the whole group. SEL will isolate some children deemed privileged and capable by their group identification; and limit other children deemed disadvantaged and less capable by their group identification. SEL limits and takes the responsibility and motivation for working hard and being able to succeed off of the child and the parent. Please do not move forward with SEL.
