Feeling overwhelmed at school does not mean a student is failing. 📚 Anxiety may show up as stomachaches, headaches, difficulty concentrating, avoiding school, perfectionism, or frequent requests to go home.
🌬️ A slow breath, a quiet reset, a trusted adult, and one manageable next step can make the day feel more possible. Families can partner with teachers or school counselors to create a simple support plan and identify a calm place or person to contact. Asking for help is a strength. 💙
