SSIS Family of Assessments

The SSIS™ SEL family of assessment is a comprehensive, evidenced-based, social and emotional learning system that also assesses key academic skills and integrates the assessments with an aligned, multi-tiered intervention and provides evidence-based tools to assess and teach skills in each of the five SEL competencies: Self-Awareness, Self-Management, Social Awareness, Relationship Skills, Responsible Decision Making. Each additional component allows you to conduct individual comprehensive evaluations, plan and deliver effective interventions, and monitor progress all within one flexible, integrated system.

The Importance of Social-Emotional Learning for Academic Development

Students with well-developed social emotional skills spend more time on task and more time helping others, resulting in a decrease in negative behavior and significant increases in learning opportunities and academic achievement. The key elements of these social emotional skills are: self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills, and responsible decision making. A deficit in any of these skills can lead to behavior and emotional difficulties and less involvement in academics.

Working Together

Fully aligned with the CASEL framework, the SSIS™ SEL edition provides evidence-based tools to assess and teach skills in each of the five SEL domains as well as the three key academic competencies established in the original Social Skills Improvement System:

The SSIS SEL Classwide Intervention Program (CIP) is a S.A.F.E.—Sequenced, Active, Focused, and Explicit— program for students, ages 4 to 14. The PowerPoint lessons, videos, role-playing exercises, and a variety of cue cards make each lesson an engaging learning experience for all students!
