BURLINGTON, ON

Day two of Education Week in Ontario.

The Halton District School Board is devoting today to Mental Health & Well Being – using the statement:

The Halton District School Board believes that healthy children and youth are more engaged learners.

Totally focused while solving a problem.

This makes it important to create conditions at school that lead to good health and enhanced learning.  Healthy schools have learning environments where children and youth are supported by their school communities, enabling them to make healthy lifestyle choices. The HDSB works closely with Halton Region Public Health Department to identify, communicate and prevent health issues that may arise in our schools and communities.

The HDSB will showcase how schools are providing caring and supportive environments that create a genuine sense of belonging to support students in their pursuit of academic excellence.
