Department of Education

State Board of Education

Guidance Document Change: The 2020 Virginia General Assembly passed House Bill 753 directing the Virginia Department of Education (VDOE) to develop guidance standards for social emotional learning (SEL) for all public students in grades Kindergarten through 12 in the Commonwealth. The Virginia Social Emotional Learning Standards were developed in collaboration with an SEL Advisory Committee, composed of educators, community leaders, agency personnel, and parents. The Virginia SEL Standards are aligned with the Profile of a Virginia Graduate and centered in equity. This intentional focus allows the Standards to explicitly teach the skills needed to be “life ready” and to create more equitable learning environments.

TOU WRE KILLING KIDS

This type of agenda is the reason so many abhor the public school system, I now am understanding why. This is not the school systems job to promote this type of rubbish. Do you want children to hate themselves for the FALSE SUPPOSED atrocities that their ancestors have committed against others? PulLEASE!

Isn’t it bad enough that you’ve already committed horrendous atrocities against these students leaving them unable to attend school for over a year due to the Woke teachers and unions refusing to do their job? Do you know how many kids have committed suicide and are dealing with serious mental problems now, set off by the refusal of educators to show up for work? ALL OF IT IS DISGUSTING.
