Mental Health & Wellness Supports (Pre-k to 12)

Any student who needs mental health support, or a family member concerned about their child, should use the emergency 911 or 988 numbers below for immediate assistance or if someone's life is in danger.
 

Otherwise, feel free to use resources on these Mental Health & Wellness Supports pages in this section of our website. You can also reach out to your child's designated school counselor. The school counselor will determine what supports are necessary and either help your child directly or refer them to another counseling staff member or an outside resource that could meet the identified needs. 
 

If your life or someone else's life is in danger, call 911.

If you are in crisis and need help now: Please call 988 (Lifeline) or you can text "Got 5" to 741741. The 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline provides free and confidential emotional support to people in suicidal crisis or emotional distress 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

  • ESM Counselors Available for Students/Parents: There are staff in each school building that students and their families can connect with for mental health support. ESM elementary, middle and high school counselors are available to help families. Feel free to contact counselors in any building or call the school.
