🇺🇸For Kansas districts · KSDE SECD standards · pilot

SECD standards, taught and evidenced — without the workload.

Skilly maps to the KSDE Social, Emotional & Character Development (SECD) Model Standards across Personal, Social and Character Development, and runs in American English with K-12 terminology (grade, district, counselor, SEL). Students write short reflections after each lesson; the AI drafts warm formative feedback and flags any concern; the teacher or counselor always has the final word. The result is the structured SEL evidence your district needs — generated, not assembled.

🇺🇸 State mandated-reporter aligned · 🧭 CASEL 5 competencies · 🔒 Student-data privacy by design

Students working together around a laptop

Pilot program — honest about where we are. The SECD mapping is complete and the platform runs fully in Kansas mode today — you can try it in the live demo below. We're onboarding a small number of pilot districts while we complete US data-residency and SOC 2 readiness and stand up per-district parental-consent flows. Join the pilot and shape it.

Built around KSDE's own standards

Three SECD domains — one platform

  • Personal Development — self-awareness and self-management: recognizing emotions, strengths and values, and regulating them. Skilly's lessons map directly.
  • Social Development — social awareness and relationship skills: empathy, communication and positive relationships, CASEL-aligned.
  • Character Development — responsible decision-making and ethical, contributing behavior in school and community.

The Skilly Kansas program

Four things every Kansas district needs SEL to do.

Each maps to shipped Skilly capability, running in Kansas mode today.

1. KSDE SECD standards, mapped

Grades PreK–12 · CASEL-aligned

Skilly's lessons are mapped to the KSDE SECD Model Standards' three domains — Personal, Social and Character Development — built on the CASEL 5. In Kansas mode the whole platform reads in US terms: SEL not SPHE, students not pupils, grades and grade bands, program not programme.

2. Safeguarding, mandated-reporter aligned

Counselor · Kansas DCF · crisis lines

Every reflection is AI-scanned for a concern the instant it's submitted. Kansas mode frames it correctly for a US school: the school counselor, state mandated-reporter law, and referral to the Kansas Department for Children and Families (DCF) and the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. A wellbeing journal that reads emotional state is gated behind recorded parental consent.

3. MTSS & SEL evidence, ready to report

Tiered supports · board reporting

Every reflection counts toward your SEL and Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) evidence. The AI School Summary writes the headline; per-class and school/district dashboards show engagement and the wellbeing picture; it all exports for board and state reporting. The teacher reads what each student actually wrote.

4. Ready for districts

Central adoption · per-school environments

Adopt Skilly once across your district and every school runs its own ring-fenced environment — no data crosses between schools. One agreement, consistent SEL provision and a consistent evidence model across every building in the district.

How districts fund it

Title IV-A, MTSS and general fund — not a one-off grant.

🎒 Title IV-A & federal SEL funding

A structured SEL program that supports safe and healthy students sits within Title IV-A (Student Support & Academic Enrichment) strategy. Skilly gives you the reflection data and evidence to show the spend working.

🏛️ General fund & MTSS

SEL and MTSS are core to a Kansas district's improvement plan. Skilly replaces scattered curricula with a single standards-mapped, evidenced program a district can run at scale.

Honestly: federal grant lines change year to year, so we don't build a pitch on a single one. Skilly is funded the way SEL provision usually is — from general fund and federal SEL/Title lines.

🔒 Student-data privacy — answered up front

Student-data privacy by design. US readiness in progress.

  • Your district is the data controller and Skilly the processor, under a US-law data-processing agreement provided at onboarding.
  • Built to FERPA and state student-data-privacy expectations; written parental consent (PPRA) is required and enforced before any wellbeing journal assesses a student's emotional state.
  • US data residency and SOC 2 readiness are in progress ahead of district pilots — we'll share our current status openly with your technology team.
  • Student reflections are never sold or shared, and are never used to train AI models.

We're transparent that US hosting and SOC 2 are pre-pilot work — talk to us about your district's specific requirements.
