Mental & Social-Emotional Health • All students with pre-existing mental health services or academic support plans will be met on an individual basis by their counselor and our school psychologist. • The Counseling Department will continue to serve our students with an open-door policy for student referrals. • Teachers will be provided with referral forms for socially, emotionally, and behaviorally at-risk students to initiate counseling contact as quickly as possible. • Teachers will receive new training on current academically at-risk referral forms to ensure that any and all students who may have fallen behind are supported through our Academic Support team programs. • Staff will receive ongoing training and professional development on best practices for referral processes, trauma-informed approaches, self-care, and for working with students who have academic, social, emotional, or behavioral needs. • Counselors will continue to update parents through weekly and monthly newsletters. • Resources and tips for parents will be provided through our weekly/monthly newsletters.
