When SEL Isn’t Enough:
Reframing Student Behavior Through an Antiracist Lens
Educators everywhere are saying the same thing:
“We’re doing SEL… and it still doesn’t feel like enough.”
Student behavior feels more intense. Discipline feels more complicated.
And educators are being asked to manage it all without examining whose norms are being enforced, or why certain behaviors are labeled as problems in the first place.
In this free live masterclass, Lorena Germán will guide educators through a deeper, more honest conversation about student behavior, one that goes beyond compliance and control.
When: Monday, January 19 (MLK Day) 4:30 PM PT / 7:30 PM ET
Where: Live on Zoom (Replay provided to all registrants)

Why SEL frameworks often fall short in today’s classrooms
How dominant cultural norms shape what we call “misbehavior”
What’s missing from the CASEL wheel and why it matters
How SEL competencies can become racialized in practice
How to apply an antiracist lens without abandoning the systems you work within
Practical, SEL-aligned strategies for responding to behavior with clarity and care
You’ll also receive a downloadable resource packet during the session to support immediate implementation.
What Educators Are Saying:
“There is a difference between community and being around a group of people. I was often in spaces that felt like echo chambers. Being in community with Lorena and Roberto gave me language for my practice, stretched my thinking, and pushed me to interrogate my beliefs. I feel supported, accountable, and energized. This virtual community has my back more than the people next door.” - Dr. Lois B.
“Textured Teaching changed the way I see education. It gave my white students a way to open space for their future students, and my students of color a language and framework I couldn’t give them myself. I now use what I’ve learned to push policy, poke at rules, and make good trouble.” - Rosemary W.
Why This Matters
It is easy to become distracted and lose sight of what our role as an educator is. We cannot be complacent, and we cannot be silent.
This masterclass is your reminder that teaching the truth is not defiance, it’s devotion.
Come learn, reflect, and connect with others who believe in sustaining culture, joy, and truth through education.
