Welcome to the 2023-24 school year! We hope you had a fantastic summer.
To kick off this year, we present the following haiku:
School bells are ringing
Doors open widely for all
Eager students near
Teachers greet students
Classrooms are freshly prepared
Lesson plans begin
Anxious, distracted
Not all students adapt well
Coping skills needed
Who can they turn to?
You! Mental health champions
Assess, plan, support
Action drives outcomes
Building teams create promise
Kids begin to thrive
We invite you to read and access the many resources shared in this newsletter edition to help your students thrive. Wishing you a wonderful start to the new school year.
Best Wishes,
The NWMHTTC School Mental Health Team
