Mental Health Resources
Mental Health at Creighton Middle School
The mental health of our students is one of our top priorities. When a student feels safe, accepted, and cared for, they do better academically, socially, and emotionally. We support student's mental health through school wide social emotional learning, providing counseling services with our counseling department, use specialized interventions/instruction in our special education department, and refer students for school-based therapy sessions with our Jefferson Center for Mental Health therapist.
