Health and well-being
Supporting the range of emotions students of all ages may be experiencing during this uncertain time is critical. Healthy relationships are a vital component of health and well-being. There is compelling evidence that strong relationships contribute to a long, healthy and happy life. I encourage everyone to visit our Student Resources website, which provides mental health and well-being resources, including relationship exercises for students.
We recognize that every family is in a different situation and has different time and ability to support their child. Educators will be considering all these scenarios and will strive to be thoughtful in how and when learning is delivered. Please work with your child’s teacher to help them understand what’s feasible right now in your home.
We recognize that timed learning may be difficult for a lot of families. One option for educators is to record live instruction and have it available during other times or have resources available any time. We hope students will be able to build connections with their teacher and classmates through some classroom-style online learning, but we realize that may not be possible for everyone.
