Dedicated to educating the heart and mind!

  • At District 6, we are committed to the social and emotional health of our staff, students, and families, especially in these uncertain times. Taking care of our emotional health is critically important. Below, you will find resources to support you and your family to grow your strength and resilience.  

     

    Mental health is not simply the absence of mental illness, but also the social, emotional, and behavioral habits that help us successfully respond to life’s challenges. With youth mental health concerns on the rise, Social Emotional Learning (SEL) skills can help provide a foundation of protective factors for children that can lessen their vulnerability to mental health concerns.  District 6 strives to provide opportunities through the teaching of SEL lessons as well as the responsive counseling services to strengthen student sense of purpose, resilience, and overall wellbeing.
