What is Mental Wellness

Mental wellness is about taking care of our emotional health and feeling balanced, connected, and able to meet life’s challenges.

There are many factors that influence our mental wellness, including:

  • Genes
  • Emotional make-up
  • Relationships
  • Physical health

Helping to identify and support our students’ mental wellness is the shared responsibility of all adults on campus.
