Did you know that LCPS is the first division to complete an Equity Assessment with the Equity Collaborative and publish a statement condemning White supremacy, hate crimes, and racially motivated acts of violence? #lcps20 #equity

Beyond excited and proud to be part of Loudoun's equity work. Moving forward!#lcps20

Thanks to @CoshandraD_TT and @Tolerance_org for the opportunity to contribute to this piece about mental health and Black youth. Culturally responsive practice in schools is critical. @nasponline @DrAsiaRJones @john_lody #itsalwaysaboutthechildren tolerance.org/magazine/fall-…

This month is Suicide Prevention Awareness Month. Suicidal thoughts do not mean someone is weak or flawed, and not taking them seriously can have devastating outcomes. Know the warning signs for suicide ⬇️

"The best part of the plan? You fill it out yourself so it’s tailored to your needs exactly. If you need help writing your own suicide safety plan, check out this template from the @800273TALK" 💗 #WorldSuicidePreventionDay themighty.com/2019/09/suicid…

How many children with anxiety and depression go to the school bathroom to deal with their pain? I don’t know the answer, but @LCPSLegacy seems to have found an awesome way to exhibit some love and a little SEL for children who enter the restroom. Love it!

If you or someone you know is struggling with suicidal thoughts, please know that you are not alone. Please reach out for help. NAMI HELPLINE 800-950-NAMI National Suicide Prevention Hotline… instagram.com/p/B2PKC-JpVty/…

National Suicide Prevention Week is September 8–14. Children deserve schools and communities where they know they’re valued and loved, and where help is available if they find themselves in crisis. These resources can help. t-t.site/2LwEIIb
