AI Summary

This bill requires the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education to publish guidelines for the implementation of social and emotional learning (SEL) curricula in middle and high school athletic programs by June 30, 2024. The guidelines must include teaching students and coaches how to create safe and supportive team cultures, provide students with age-appropriate leadership roles, address hate and bias, build positive relationships, and develop skills like emotion management and problem-solving. School districts would be required to consider these guidelines if they choose to integrate SEL into their athletic programs. The department must also integrate the guidelines into the state's existing safe and supportive schools framework.
