'SYSTEM OF CARE - SCHOOL BASED SERVICES FROM SU CO MENTAL HEALTH

South Haven USD 509 is one of five schools in Sumner County that are expanding services for SED children through the Systems of Care grant. This grant, which was awarded in 2016, will enrich the services provided by Sumner Mental Health. An on-site therapist and case managers will be added to South Haven schools in an effort to provide a more supportive environment for the children we serve. Sumner Mental Health Center and USD 509 are excited to continue to collaborate to provide school-based mental health services. A brochure telling more about the services offered and eligibility of students can be found below.

11 TIPS FOR GETTING INVOLVED IN YOUR CHILD'S EDUCATION

1. Take your child to school on the first day.

2. Let your child know school is important. 

3. Read everything that is sent home from school. Show your child that you are well informed.

4. Get to know your child's teachers and school administrators by attending meetings and conferences.

5. Ask for copies of school policies. Ask questions if there is something you do not understand.

6. Volunteer to help out with school activities. Attend events, help with fundraisers, etc.

7. Visit your child's classroom when class is in sessions, not just at conferences. Set this up in advance with the school office.

8. Talk to other parents. If there is a parent organization, join it.

9. Encourage your child to read at home. Visit local libraries to pick books out together.

10. Invite step parents, grandparents, and other adults to get involved in your child's education.

11. Get involved in school funding, planning and improvement efforts.
