Dear colleagues,

Last month. the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine released The Promise of Adolescence: Realizing Opportunity for All Youth, supported by the Funders for Adolescent Science Translation. The report calls for policies and practices to capitalize on the opportunities of adolescence and address inequities—in education, health care, and other areas—that undermine the well-being of many young people at this critical period of development.

Click here for materials from a recent webinar and join the National Academies in Washington DC on August 1 to discuss the report recommendations and their implementation (in-person or by webcast). FAST members include the Annie E. Casey Foundation, Bezos Family Foundation, Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, Conrad N. Hilton Foundation, Ford Foundation, National Public Education Support Fund, Raikes Foundation, and Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.

SEL through Integration and Practices: Two Instructive Posts

Adolescents’ social-emotional development can be effectively cultivated through practices that young people process as unintentional, notes Search Institute’s Eric Kalenze in a post that references research conducted by UTexas Austin’s David Yaeger. Education Dive reports on a SXSW EDU panel led by Open Up Resources and EL Education featuring examples of infusing SEL into core subjects.

Remaking Middle School: An emerging coalition of funders, researchers and practitioners is focused on increasing attention and investment in the middle school years. New York Life Foundation, Altria Group, the Youth-Nex Center at the UVA Curry School of Education and Human Development, and the Association for Middle Level Education (AMLE) collaborated with Gallup to host the Remaking Middle School Summit in February 2019. Post-summit, Youth-Nex is leading design teams focused on school climate and culture, professional learning and development, and research to practice. For more information: Jason Cascarino, Strategic Advisor to AMLE.
