Region 10’s ESC Safety 1st Conference: Making Schools Safe will mirror our regional focus on students by providing this service to help lead school staff to solutions that focus upon greater safety on school campuses.
To start our day, please answer this important question: www.sli.do.com (#1010)
Students do not leave their mental health needs at home, therefore educators need to know how to recognize and respond to signs of anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues that may impact students at school. At the same time, school employees need to be aware of laws regarding the right to consent to treatment, privacy, and other concerns that may arise in this delicate area. In this session, a TASB attorney will introduce the laws and district policies that apply to handling student mental health issues in schools, including counseling, confidentiality, and suicide prevention.
