Need a Mental Health Break?

School-Based Therapy

Our GISD School Based Therapy team is a group of licensed professional counselors and social workers who work with students and their families to either provide students with therapy during the school day or connect the student to community-based services. School counselors can provide students and families with more information about school-based therapy and are able to make a referral to these general education services when appropriate.


Suicide Prevention

National Suicide Prevention Lifeline

We can all help prevent suicide. The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline is available 24/7 and offers free and confidential support to people in distress. It also provides prevention and crisis resources for you or your loved ones. Call 1-800-273-8255, text the Crisis Text Line (text HELLO to 741741), or Live Chat the Lifeline if you or a loved one is in need. Suicide is not inevitable.

Hope Squad

The Georgetown High School Hope Squad is a group of students who are highly trained in recognizing the warning signs of suicide in their peers, persuading individuals to get help, and referring these individuals to the counselors. The GHS Hope Squad works to de-stigmatize mental illness and spread the message of hope to all students through school-wide functions and events. For more information about Hope Squad, see the GHS Clubs page.
