“[Taking part in the Academy] gave us time to focus, develop our SEL goals, and plan as a team without outside influences or conflicts arising. It provided a supportive environment for growth in this area.”
SEb ACADEMY PARTICIPANT
From 2019-2025, the SEB Academy was a partnership between the Education Development Center, the May Institute, and the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE). For 2025-2026, Education Development Center will continue to operate the Academy in partnership with DESE. EDC remains grateful to the May Institute for their many years of partnership and collaboration.
If you represent a Massachusetts-based school or district and are interested to apply for the academy, visit the DESE MTSS Academy webpage.
If you represent a school or district outside of Massachusetts, or a State Education Agency (SEA) and are interested in how you can receive these type of supports, contact Shai Fuxman at the Education Development Center.
