The "S" in AXIS
 
The "S" in AXIS represents our commitment to social, emotional, and cognitive skills development in our students. Often in education this is referred to as Social-Emotional Learning, or SEL.
 
Social-Emotional Learning (or SEL) addresses the skills that we need to relate to and work with others, set goals, manage ourselves and our behavior, and resolve conflict. These are skills that we learn and development throughout our lives -- at home, in our communities, and also at school. Here at AXIS International Academy, we recognize our students and staff as whole people who are learning and growing in many different ways. Attending to social-emotional learning is part of how we support our students in developing these skills that will benefit them in the classroom and beyond. Visit the "S" in AXIS page to find out more about what this looks like every day!
