Ohio Guidestone will be presenting in 8th grade social studies classes on depression, suicide and what to do if students are concerned about a friend on December 4th & 5th. Mr. Harcula and Mrs. Johnson will be conducting SOS Screening on December 5th. This is for 8th grade students only.

Students will complete a response slip which asks whether they would like to talk to an adult about any concerns. School staff will conduct brief meetings with any student asking to talk.

Following the video, students will complete a brief depression screening tool. This tool cannot provide a diagnosis of depression but does indicate whether a young person should be referred for evaluation by a mental health professional. Below is a link to more information and the opt out form. An opt out form will also be sent home on Monday November 25th with your student.
