Mission Our mission is to partner with educators around the world to transform schools into optimal learning environments for all students and design inspiring, world-class, research- and evidence-based academic, social and emotional learning programs, products, and services for educators and students.

Our vision is to influence and inspire a world-class education for every student in every school, every day, and to bring hope and joy to educators and students alike.
Description Center for Responsive Schools (CRS) is a nonprofit educational development organization and publishing house committed to developing high-quality social and emotional learning (SEL) programs, products, and services for students and educators. Since its founding in a small town in western Massachusetts in 1981, CRS has become an international leader in research- and evidence-based SEL programs, products, and services. These include Responsive Classroom, its flagship approach to teaching and discipline, and Fly Five, its social and emotional learning curriculum for elementary and middle schools, as well as dozens of books and professional resources for educators.

Responsive Classroom is an evidence-based approach to teaching and discipline that focuses on engaging academics, positive community, effective management, and developmental awareness. Our professional development, books and resources help elementary and middle school educators to create safe, joyful, and engaging classrooms and school communities where students develop strong social and academic skills and every student can thrive. Responsive Classroom is a CASEL SELect Program.

Fly Five is a kindergarten to eighth grade social and emotional learning curriculum developed on the core belief that, in order for students to be academically, socially, and behaviorally successful, they need to learn a set of social and emotional competencies, namely cooperation, assertiveness, responsibility, empathy, and self-control (C.A.R.E.S.). The Fly Five lessons are designed to be easy to follow and implement so that teachers can place their attention on the important work of noticing a student’s academic, social, and emotional growth and progress and creating conditions for that progress to continue.
