Mental Health Resources

As we move towards the end of the school year, please remember mental health resources are available on the school website.

Social Work Department-everything from community mental health organizations to helpful articles and resources including a helpful virtual office that offers coping strategies and self-care tools.


Hinsdale Central PTO Parent List-Angie's List style resource where parents may read and anonymously write positive reviews regarding local support services that have been successful in handling childhood developmental, emotional, learning and health issues.
FAFSA Completion

This is a reminder to all seniors that you are required to file the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) or complete a FAFAS Non-Participation Form in order to graduate. If you are choosing to complete the non-participation form, please return it to your counselor.
DuPage County Health Alert

Please see the attached information (Smart Alert and Educational Flyer) on Xylazine. Guidance from the DuPage Health Department is to use Narcan or naloxone if a drug overdose is suspected. The addition of Xylazine to the opioid drug supply increases the risk of overdose. Narcan or naloxone will help with the opioid part of the overdose. The flyer does a nice job of addressing this issue and others on the health impacts of Xylazine. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to Mila Tsagalis, Director of Community Initiatives at the DuPage County Health Department.
National Decision Day

Attention Seniors: We will celebrate Senior Decision Day on Friday, April 28 recognizing your commitment to pursue college, the military, or other post-secondary options after graduation. Stop by the new Learning Commons during lunch to take photos with friends!

All donated materials will go to the Habitat for Humanity Restore in Addison, Illinois. Thank you for your generosity Red Devil Families!
