May is Mental Health Awareness Month. Our student's mental health is as important as their physical health. Sometimes the most important step is listening. Taking time to listen to the concerns of a young person in your life can help them feel safe sharing what they’re experiencing. https://www.samhsa.gov/mental-health/children-and-families
Happy Teacher & Staff Appreciation Week, WCS Family! 💙
Your dedication, care, and commitment to our students never go unnoticed. Thank you for all you do each day to make Whitesville such a special place! #BlueJayPride
May is Mental Health Awareness Month. This year's theme is "See the Person. Support the Journey." Parents are often the first to notice when something feels different. Changes in mood, sleep, appetite or behavior may signal a young person needs support. https://www.samhsa.gov/find-support/helping-someone/helping-your-child

Are you interested in having your child screened for lead? There is no safe level of lead in the body, and routine testing helps detect exposure early to protect your child's health and development. Healthcare providers should do a blood lead test for children at age 1 and age 2. If your child hasn't been screened, let the Allegany County Department of Health know that you are interested.
