September is Suicide awareness month. The impact of suicide is far reaching. We would like to let students, staff and the community know that there are people to talk to and safe chat and text lines that provide support 24 hours a day. You can text or call 988 or chat at 988lifeline.org. You can also text 741741 or call the Suicide Prevention Lifeline 1-800-273-8255. We are asking the junior and senior high to wear yellow on Wednesday, September 28, in support of suicide awareness.
