Join us in celebrating Mental Health Awareness Week this May!

Mental health is an important part of overall health and well‑being for students, families, and school staff. Mental Health Awareness Week gives schools an opportunity to share practical strategies, build healthy habits, and connect students and families with supportive resources.

To support schools, the South Dakota Statewide Family Engagement Center created the Mental Health Awareness Week Toolkit, a collection of free, ready‑to‑use K–12 resources designed to be used throughout the week. School staff will find short, easy, leveled lessons, along with classroom and schoolwide materials to support student well‑being.
