Sheridan Doerr shares how the Second Step K-12 social-emotional learning curriculum builds foundational human skills that enhance academic performance. The company recently completed a major evidence study across 242 sites and 25,000 students, showing significant improvements in English language arts, reduced disciplinary issues, better school culture, and 2.5 fewer absent days per student. Sheridan explains how Second Step’s flexible technology platform delivers content that develops critical skills like problem-solving, communication, resilience, and empathy, which serve as the foundation for success in core academic subjects. She also highlights the company’s upcoming launch of tiered interventions and emphasizes how social-emotional learning complements the technology tools showcased at ISTE, preparing students for both digital citizenship and academic achievement.
