Happy
Wellness Wednesday!
September is Suicide
Prevention Awareness Month. Visit the Warning Signs
for Suicide page to familiarize yourself with specific behaviors that
might suggest thoughts of suicide, especially in youth.
The
counselors and Mr. Garcia’s Peer Mediators have partnered to offer some
activities at lunch next week for suicide prevention awareness week. Please
encourage students to come and visit with us in front of room 506 at lunch next
week.
Because YELLOW stands
for happiness, positivity, energy, optimism, and joy, we are asking for
our campus community to wear YELLOW on Wednesdays to help promote
our Wellness Wednesday efforts.
