North Aiken Elementary School’s Social Emotional Learning (SEL) platform is Capturing Kids’ Hearts. This aligns with our vision statement: The children are the HEART of North Aiken and together we learn, grow, and excel. The teachers and staff use the EXCEL model daily to capture the hearts of the students at NAiES.
