Announcements/Week Ahead
May is Mental Health Awareness Month - With mental health entering more and more of our daily conversations, it’s critical that everyone has a solid foundation of knowledge about mental health. That’s why for Mental Health Month this year, Mental Health America is getting back to basics. We will share out information each week with our students during Wellness Wednesdays!Addressing mental health symptoms early is critically important for overall health. While 1 in 5 people will experience a mental illness during their lifetime, everyone faces challenges in life that can impact their mental health.
Wear your Wellness Day T-shirts every Wednesday for the Month of May to bring awareness~ And if your seen wearing your t-shirt maybe a surprise will show up in your mailbox!
Update from Sunshine - Our condolences go out to Scot Abel for the passing of his mother. Please keep Scot and his family in your thoughts during this difficult time.
Struggling students - I want to thank everyone who is going above and beyond to support all students throughout the semester. As we move into May please keep going for the final push to support students. If the student is in special education or in Valor or New Horizons please be in regular contact with their case worker.
Aspire Testing: A shout out to Sara Pinsonneault for the behind-the-scenes test set up and post-test clean up. That's a wrap for Aspire this year!
