NOW OFFERING ON-DEMAND
VIRTUAL ACCESS!
Regardless of what school looks like in the fall, we will be faced with new educational and personal challenges on the horizon, specifically in regards to student mental health. This two-day event seeks to provide a unique opportunity for building principals, counselors, student leadership advisers and student leaders to come together to discuss and seek solutions for student mental health concerns impacting our schools.
What Will It Look Like?
MASSP’s virtual SMHS will provide the same impactful content, keynote speakers and dozens of new concepts and programs to take back to your school building. Although nothing can replace in-person content, a virtual program does allow all participants to view every recorded keynote presentation and breakout session as opposed to selecting from a series of concurrent presentations.
*Please note attendees will be accessing all pre-recorded content from the live event on October 5 & 6. This content is being delivered in an on-demand format.
Who Should Attend?
A team from each school inclusive of: Principal, Counselor, Student Leadership Adviser and 3-5 student leaders.
Date(s):
Access will be given to the On-Demand content from October 9th - October 20th
Location:
Anywhere you and your team feel comfortable!
