Wellness Studio
Good mental health is as important as physical health.
Both are required to effectively learn and cope with hardship and challenge. Taking care of our mental wellness requires ongoing attention, regular maintenance and practice.
Thanks to a generous grant from the Hillsboro Schools Foundation, the Poynter counseling team is excited to announce the creation of the Wellness Studio and Calm space in the fall of 2021.

Wellness Studio
Located in Room 35, the Wellness Studio has been created to provide time and space at school to learn and practice the art of mental wellness and self-care.... or hygiene for the mind and soul!
In the Wellness Studio students learn a variety of strategies to reduce stress, manage emotions and focus the mind.
The Wellness Studio will be used for small group instruction and available for individual student use by appointment beginning in October.

Calm...
Calm...
Located in the Counseling Center, Calm is a space to press your "reset" button. We all have big emotions at times that need to be let out and it can be hard to think about anything else. Sometimes we just need a few minutes to breathe and take a break.
Calm is a place. Calm is a space. Calm is where you can go, to give yourself grace.
Calm includes a menu of activities students may choose for a private "reset" (refocus the mind/body/heart/soul) and return to class ready to learn.
Calm visits are 5-7 minutes in length.
