Mental Health Assistance Resources

Student social-emotional wellness is a critical building block of a student’s overall well-being. A student’s positive perception of self and their ability to positively interact with peers, adults, and the community have a direct effect on the student’s sense of well-being and academic achievement. District staff and school volunteers support practices and build relationships that promote and ensure that children are learning in an intellectually challenging environment, are physically and emotionally safe, and in which students are engaged in their learning, and are connected to the school and broader community.
