💚Mental Health Matters. Mental Health Affects Everyone. Support your child's mental wellbeing by spending time in nature or with loved ones, get enough sleep, exercise, limit screen time and technology, do an activity they enjoy.
Help your child by listening to the big and small things, sharing meaningful praise, setting and enforcing technology boundaries and seeking professional help when needed.
Mental health warning signs can include a sudden change in weight or appetite, complaints of stomachaches, changes in sleeping habits, becoming more isolated and difficulty concentrating. Visit the district's mental health resource page for more information: https://www.lexrich5.org/resources/mental-health-care
