Well-Being, Academic, and Life Skill Development for Supportive Student Learning Environments: A District Self-Assessment
Janssen, C.; Pierce, S.
Region 17 Comprehensive Center
Districts and schools that implement programs related to student well-being, academic, and life skill development (WALSD) improve school climate, academics, and discipline (Kendziora & Yoder, 2016). The programs also have significant effects on how students function in school and work as well as their emotional and mental health, even into adulthood (Hawkins et al., 2005). Supporting a positive instructional environment where students can learn and practice well-being, academic, and life skills is a process, not a program. It is important to align and integrate efforts across districts and within schools to allow continuous growth among students and school community members. Collaboratively developing, managing, and supporting a WALSD vision builds ownership and ensures that WALSD programs and practices align with the district's system efforts. This self-assessment can help districts identify areas of growth and success while undertaking or expanding whole child supports across their systems. It is intended to be used by district teams to guide reflection and engage in collaborative planning.
