Second Step is a program designed to help students in Kindergarten through 8th Grade gain the social-emotional skills that will help them in school and throughout their lives. Some schools in SFUSD have incorporated Second Step training and lessons into their curriculum, and other schools are planning to do so soon. If you are a teacher interested in getting bringing Second Step to your classroom, resources will soon be posted to help you get started.
