Social Emotional Learning

Social Emotional Learning (SEL)_ sounds non-threatening but what is it and how is it implemented in our schools? SEL is the umbrella for many of the social engineering concepts that have infiltrated our schools such as Welcoming Schools, gender ideology, Critical Race Theory and Equity, Intersexuality, Comprehensive Sex Education, etc.

Teachers are trained in “mapping cultural values” which means identifying a student’s “personal cultural values and preferences.” This information is collected in a “data dashboard” and measured to see whether an individual demonstrates change in regard to attitudes, feelings and behaviors. The results are entered into a national SEL data bank. It is an invasion of privacy at the highest level.

Below are many good articles that help explain SEL and the dangers it poses to our school children.

• University of Minnesota Extension Using SEL
  SEL has even infiltrated youth development programs such as 4-H. SEL sounds inviting and educational but ask yourself what and whose values are the children learning? Listen to the “politically correct” words used in children’s vocabulary — “safe spaces, cultural responsiveness, Indigenous Circles, work father…” Notice also that data is gathered using incentives, such as candy, Instagram, etc., which in turn is used to produce “best practices” research.
