MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS MONTH
May is Mental Health Awareness Month. Ganesha HS commits to raise awareness about mental health. We will use this time to amplify the message of "Look Around, Look Within" to reduce the stigma associated with mental illness, educate the Ganesha community on the importance of mental health and wellness and provide resources to support families and individuals affected by mental health issues. We will be sharing information and resources via social media, student videos, posters and resource fair.
