The Lions Quest program is a comprehensive social emotional learning curriculum that has a grade level specific program for grades k-6. The Kiwanis graciously voted to purchase each grade level kit for each of the four elementary schools and a 6th grade kit for Columbia 6th Grade Academy. The counseling staff will be using the curriculum as the basis for social emotional learning. The Lions Quest curriculum has been proven effective by The Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning (CASEL). The Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning (CASEL) is a trusted source for knowledge about high-quality, evidence-based social and emotional learning (SEL). CASEL supports educators and policy leaders and enhances the experiences and outcomes for all PreK-12 students.
