In 2018-19, ORE surveyed teachers about implementing Second Step, a social-emotional learning program designed to promote self-regulation skills among students in grades K-8. We had four primary research questions:

  1. Do teachers report implementing Second Step with fidelity?
  2. Do teachers feel adequately trained, prepared, and supported to implement Second Step?
  3. What benefits and challenges have teachers experienced with Second Step?
  4. What additional supports do teachers feel they need to implement Second Step successfully?
