between our staff and the mental health professional in efforts to

flexibility allows each school district to determine their needs and
implement the most adequate strategies to meet them."

"Every school day a good number of students
walk through our doors carrying a great deal of emotional "baggage"
which interferes with their academic and social performance. By working
together in a true partnership we are able to assist our students
and their families in making their world a more positive and productive
one."
