| Summary | Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) is the zeitgeist for educational leaders in the contemporary world. Studies have determined that when implemented with fidelity, SEL skills aid school leaders in enhancing cooperation, reducing violence, and aid students in building their problem-solving skills, thus boosting academic achievement as a whole, while indirectly creating educational equity in Hispanic-majority schools. This action research study analyzed both qualitative and quantitative data to determine the effectiveness of a social-emotional framework in a Hispanic-majority school. This study concluded that school culture and a focus on SEL plays a significant role in the development and success of students. Futhermore, this study concluded that as teachers expand their knowledge on SEL, they are better able to implement SEL strategies to boost student engagement and academic achievement while combating Adverse Childhood Experiences for Hispanic students. |
