We consider mental health and well-being as critical in the promotion of student success and achievement.   As such, we are committed to supporting the mental health and well-being of our students, families and staff. 
 
Mental Health is defined as a state of well-being in which every person is able to realize their own potential, is able to cope with stressors of daily life, and is able to engage and contribute to the overall community (World Health Organization, 2018).
