Prevention and wellness are important parts of helping children feel safe, supported, and ready to learn. Our counseling program promotes healthy habits, positive relationships, emotional awareness, and coping skills that students can use every day. 

💛 Families Can Support Wellness By:

• Talking about feelings — Encourage your child to name and talk about their emotions.

• Building healthy routines — Consistent sleep, meals, exercise, and routines can help children feel prepared for the school day.

• Practicing calming strategies — Try deep breathing, stretching, taking a break, drawing, or listening to calming music.

• Encouraging positive friendships — Talk about kindness, respect, empathy, and how to solve disagreements.

• Setting healthy boundaries — Teach children about personal space, safe and unsafe situations, and how to speak up when something doesn't feel right.

• Promoting positive self-talk — Help your child recognize their strengths and replace negative thoughts with encouraging ones.

• Staying connected — Regular conversations and family time help children know they have trusted adults they can turn to.

• Monitoring technology use — Establish age-appropriate boundaries around screen time, online activities, and digital communication.
