MCPS launches video series about supporting students’ emotional health
The MCPS Office of Student and Family Support and Engagement recently launched a new video series providing information about resources to support students’ emotional well-being. The series, called MCPS Waymaking, explores what causes stress for students and how to provide them support.
The first two videos, posted to the MCPS YouTube channel, focus on identifying and responding to students who are at risk for suicide and managing stress during social distancing.
