It's taking off at schools around the country, public and private, low income, high income, middle income. Across the board, it's growing, a large part of being a human being is having social, emotional and attention skills and in the majority of schools I visit, we don't actually teach kids how to pay attention or how to deal with their inner states in a healthy way. We just assume that they'll learn them somewhere else.
