Your Well-Being Matters
We acknowledge that many of our students, parents/guardians, staff and school communities are all experiencing uncertainty and worry about their health and safety, and that of their loved ones. As COVID-19 continues to disrupt our personal and professional lives, it is important to acknowledge these impacts and to engage in an open dialogue, discussing ways to maintain and support our collective mental health and well-being.
We’ve created and gathered a variety of coping strategies and resources to help everyone in the weeks and months ahead, while promoting positive mental health and well-being. Some of the following topics may include: Self-Care, Gratitude, Connection, Kindness, Physical Activity and Creativity as we aim to support the needs of our school communities and staff.
