Our department has partnered with Lexington United Methodist Church to offer a confidential program, which provides snacks for students to take home at the end of each week. This program is intended to provide families who may be going through some financial hardship with healthy snacks for their children.
If you would like your child to receive a weekend snack pack, please reach out to a counselor for a sign-up form.
👝 Snack Packs typically include items such as instant oatmeal and grits, granola bars, apple sauce, ramen noodles, mac and cheese, fruit snacks, etc. Contents may vary based on item availability.
Ms. Emma Ramsey will be serving DES students as our School-Based Mental Health Therapist through Lexington County Community Mental Health. This service provides long-term therapy to our students, year-round.
If you would like to set up services with LCCMH, please contact your child's school counselor for more information, or visit the clinic at 305 Palmetto Park Blvd, Lexington, SC 29072.
☞ Lexington One also partners with LifeChanges, Dickerson Children's Advocacy Center, and Pathways to Healing to meet the mental health needs of our students. Please reach out to your child's school counselor to learn more about these services.
