Parental Mental Health Tip of the Week:

Develop competencies. Teens need to know that they can overcome challenges and accomplish goals through their actions. Achieving academic success and developing individual talents and interests helps teens feel competent and more able to deal with stress positively. Social competency is also important. Having friends and staying connected to friends and loved ones can enhance mental wellness. Adapted from National Association of School Psychologists, "Supporting Children’s Mental Health: Tips for Parents and Educators".

Attention Freshman Parents:

We have started our mental health unit in Freshmen 101. In this unit we cover topics such as; self-harm, suicide, depression, and anxiety. We cover this topic to help give students a base of knowledge to know when to ask for help. Additionally, we will be giving them a risk assessment at the end of the unit so students have a safe place to reach out for help. If you have any questions or concerns please reach out to your student's school counselor.
