Counseling & Mental Health
Mental Health Staff and Support
Building a strong sense of belonging is an important thing we can do to create a safe school environment. Everyone is valued, respected, supported, included and personally accepted in this environment.
When schools create a sense of belonging where students find a place they are nurtured and cared for, then the school and wider community will be a safer place to go to learn and to live.
We have staff members that support our students, do risk assessments, and have conversations regularly about student safety.

One-to-one and small group counseling with some of our most at-risk students.
School Counselors
Universal support available to all students.
Behavior Prevention Specialists (funded through Student Wellness & Success Funds)
