Abstract—This research aimed to apply S. M. Jones' perspectives on Social-Emotional Learning (SEL), J. S. Bruner's cultural psychology, and A. Strati's organizational aesthetics to address the following research questions: "How can school organizations integrate SEL with the practices of cultural psychology and aesthetic management?" "How can teachers incorporate SEL with cultural psychology and aesthetic leadership practices?" and "What positive impacts does the integration of SEL, cultural psychology, and organizational aesthetics in school education have on student learning?" The findings indicated that "the application of organizational aesthetics in schools helps manage a culturally-oriented learning environment that promotes SEL practices," "the application of organizational aesthetics by teachers supports collaborative efforts to shape a school culture that fosters SEL practices," and "students' participation in school education that integrates cultural learning and organizational aesthetics contributes to the development of social-emotional skills." Specific recommendations were proposed.
