Mental Health Resources:
At Quaker Valley School District, our mission is to educate and empower all learners to design their best future in a safe and nurturing environment. We strive to cultivate a culture that values resilience, compassion, and the well-being of each student. By working together, we can strive to ensure that every member of our community feels connected, supported, and safe.Good mental health is foundational to a student’s success, both in school and in life. It is essential for families and school personnel to recognize changes in behavior, such as withdrawal, social isolation, or increased irritability, which may indicate a need for support. By encouraging our students to build strong connections with peers and trusted adults, join activities that foster a sense of belonging, and maintain consistent communication, we can create a positive and safe environment. Establishing healthy routines - such as prioritizing proper rest, staying active, and engaging in quality time with family and friends - promotes both physical and emotional wellness. The District encourages all families to familiarize themselves with resources designed to help identify risk factors and support those in need: Preventing Youth Suicide: Tips for Parents and Educators (NASP).
