As you all know, these last two years have been difficult for all of us, including all of our students. When the pandemic first hit, I made a #askastudent video on how students were doing during quarantine (which feels like a lifetime ago). 

 

Now, almost two years later, I wanted to focus on the current state of students' mental health, something that often goes unnoticed and not discussed. In this new edition of #askastudent, I ask questions about what is taking up the majority of their mental space right now, and ask how they could be supported. Mental Health resources are shared within the video link as well.

 

Please watch and share if you feel that this could be a helpful resource for students, or anyone else you know. The grit our students have in this district is incredibly strong and I'm happy to help share their voices.
