What’s one thing your school got right this year? 👇

Earlier support changes everything, and the best ideas are already in the room.

We work alongside Florida schools because that’s where the real work happens.

In case you needed the reminder: your work matters.

Dr. Amanda March shares a few reflections for educators, school leaders, and district teams finishing out the school year and thinking about what comes next.

Reflect on how far you’ve come, celebrate the progress you’ve made, and remember: you’re not alone in this work. You’ve got this. 💚

It’s not just busy. It’s heavy.

Across districts this spring, we’re seeing the same pressure points.

What’s helping isn’t more.
It’s focusing on what actually works.

Support matters.

“One small act can be the difference between burning out and showing up tomorrow.”

You’re not alone. 💚

Burnout is real. As the school year wraps up, it helps to remember why we do this work: so students know support is here.

You’re not alone. 💚

Three doctoral students. Three universities. One shared goal: advancing evidence-based student mental health. 🎓💡

This year, we launched our first Graduate Student Research Award to support emerging leaders shaping school mental health:

• Jean Pauline Serrano (UC Santa Barbara ) - exploring trust, coordination, and access to care for students navigating adversity
• Caleb Edney (University of South Florida ) - developing a single-session ACT intervention for youth
• Chloe Hendrix (University of Wisconsin–Madison ) - advancing universal and Tier 2 supports with culturally responsive practices

We’re proud to support their work and the future of school mental health.
Congratulations to our inaugural award winners. đź‘Ź
