Hi Central Families. With the upcoming Book Fair, we hate to think of students missing out on the thrill of buying new books because they need help to afford them. Please help put new books in all students' hands by donating to a general e-wallet fund. Mrs. Murasky will manage this fund to help students who may need it. Cougars Roll! https://shop.scholastic.com/ewallet/fund?lang=en_US&walletId=f134cb76-1e8b-42ab-a359-c09a76ae81c3

Nearly one in five children in the United States will experience mental illness in their lifetime (source: Center for Disease Control). World Mental Health Day, honored annually on October 10, was created to raise awareness of mental health issues and mobilize support to improve the mental health of people around the world.
This year’s theme, “Mental health is a universal human right,” highlights the importance of global well-being in all aspects of governmental policy. The last few years have been taxing on the population, and many global citizens feel their mental health needs to be more of a priority - especially in those countries where so many are displaced or surrounded by wars.
In the United States, barriers to mental health services remain a significant hurdle to getting support. Advocating for equitable mental health systems for all will lead the path to positive global outcomes.
La Grande School District is committed to raising awareness about mental health and equitable access to quality mental health services.
La Grande School District partnered with Care Solace to support the well-being of students, staff, and their family members. Care Solace is a complimentary and confidential care coordination service that can help you quickly find mental health or substance use treatment options matched to your needs, regardless of circumstance.
If you would like to use Care Solace to help you find a provider:
Call 888-515-0595. Multilingual support is available 24/7/365
