Take a look around and visit frequently

Our goal with this site is to provide resources beneficial to you and your current situation. We have created pages for both teachers and parents with articles, materials, tips, videos, and more. There is also a page for general COVID materials, that pertain to both teachers and parents. We hope this site will supply you with a multitude of resources to meet your needs. However, if there is something additional you need, please feel free to reach out to us. Under the "Contact Us" tab, you will find the JSD 117 school psychologists and their assigned schools. As always, we are here to help however we can - especially in this trying time.

Action for Happiness's monthly theme is: Happier January 2021. Daily actions to help make yourself and others happier. "The best way to try to handle our difficult emotions and experiences is by focusing on what we can control. This month, we're encouraging everyone to focus on small steps to try to boost happiness - for ourselves and others around us - to spread kindness and hopefully inspire others to do the same."
