Teachers will monitor and check in with students through weekly “wellness” surveys. These surveys will include a multiple choice question about how they are feeling. One of the choices will be, “I’m having a hard time and would like to check-in.” The survey will be completed on-line so that students can participate while Distance Learning. Based on student answers, teachers will assess needs. If necessary, a Student Success Team meeting will be scheduled with teacher(s), parents, student and administration to create a plan to address needs.
Teachers and/or staff will make monthly contact with parents to check in and offer support as needed or direct them to the support as appropriate.
Information on crisis supports will be a regular part of the school weekly Ram-o-Gram. The parish has a food pantry as well as a Fifth Sunday fund that can help families who need the support.
The parish Minister for Pastoral and Social Services is available for crisis support and resources.
