Mental Health and Wellness
Welcome to our mental health hub! At Washington County Schools, we prioritize the well-being of our students, staff and families. In being proactive, we strive to create a positive and nurturing learning environment. Each school is equipped with counselors and other resources to assist in fostering an atmosphere that supports healthy and thriving mental, social and emotional health, including promoting open communication and using evidence-based practices to destigmatize the challenges of managing mental health. The district also employs a school psychologist, who serves all schools in our district. Explore resources, tips and other supports below.
