This year has been challenging for us all and for some those challenges can become overwhelming. It is important to know what to do, or who to turn to if you or a friend ever need help.
Ask for help: Don’t be afraid to let your family, teachers, or other trusted adults know what you need when they ask; they want to help. If you are worried about a friend, you need to tell a trusted adult. Do not promise to keep a secret. Even if you think your friend might be mad at you for telling, it is better to have a mad friend then one who is in danger. The staff at City High are caring adults who can connect you with the help that you need.
