The U.S school system is challenged with multiple problems including below average test scores, a lack of respect for teaching staff and elders, poor student engagement, and low levels of self-discipline. These issues have decreased student attendance and confidence in the school system. An average of 1.2 million students drop out each year and students with a deficiency in mental and emotional resilience show an increase in rates of depression, suicide, and drug use. To counteract these problems, Resilience, Inc has developed a Social Emotional Learning (SEL) curriculum that is currently being used by Dream Academy.
