CASEL SEL Exchange 2024 - Beyond Borders and Backpacks: Building Bridges for Newcomer SEL

Join us for our Beyond Borders & Backpacks at CASEL SEL Exchange 2024

We are excited to announce that the Mindful Practices and Class Catalyst team is heading to Chicago for CASEL’s Social & Emotional Learning Exchange from November 12th-14th, 2024! We’d love for you to join our session on November 13th, where we’ll share tips on welcoming newcomers and supporting staff and students.

We will also have some exciting things popping at our booth in the vendor hall🍿 (hint: it involves Garrett’s popcorn). Make sure to come hangout with the team, play bags, win some awesome prizes, and explore our innovative SEL resources. Let’s celebrate the spirit of gratitude together while fostering meaningful connections at this exciting conference!

After CASEL SEL Exchange: A Slice of Chicago Dinner

Join Us After Our Session for a Slice of Chicago Dinner!

After a mind-expanding day of conference brilliance on Wednesday, let’s turn up the pizzazz and head over to Pizano’s Pizza for a slice 🍕 (or two 🍕🍕, or three 🍕🍕🍕… who’s counting?)!

Join us for some cheesy, saucy, and totally awesome post-conference fun. It’s the perfect way to unwind, share stories, and maybe even discover a hidden pizza talent. So, if you’re ready to trade conference notes for pizza crusts, RSVP here and let’s a slice of Chicago together!
