<![CDATA[In recent years, the importance of addressing students' social and emotional development alongside their academic needs has gained increasing recognition. Traditional education systems have predominantly emphasized cognitive skills and academic achievement, often neglecting the emotional and social aspects of student growth. This oversight can lead to significant consequences, such as heightened rates of anxiety, depression, and behavioral issues among students. The lack of social-emotional learning (SEL) integration in school curricula results in many students being ill-prepared to manage their emotions, establish healthy relationships, and make responsible decisions. Modern life's pressures and complexities exacerbate this problem, demanding greater emotional resilience and interpersonal skills from young people. Integrating SEL into school curricula can substantially enhance students' overall well-being, academic performance, and future success. By equipping students with the tools to understand and manage their emotions, develop empathy, and build strong interpersonal relationships, SEL creates a more supportive and effective learning environment. This holistic educational approach addresses the immediate emotional and social needs of students and contributes to their long-term personal and professional development. The objective of this article is to explore the importance of SEL in schools and highlight its benefits for students, educators, and the broader educational community. SEL, as an educational framework, aims to develop students' emotional intelligence, social skills, and overall well-being. By integrating SEL into school curricula, we can foster a supportive and emotionally healthy learning environment that prepares students to navigate the complexities of life, ensuring they are well-equipped for future challenges and opportunities.]]>
