SPS Extra for October, 2023: Mental Health Awareness
Oct 24, 2023 Season 1 Episode 10
Spokane Public Schools

In October, the world celebrated Mental Health Day. This was a day to raise awareness of mental health issues around the world and to show efforts in support of mental health. 

In this month's episode, we dive into the importance of mental health awareness and how extracurriculars statistically prove a better well being. 

We have interviews with the Wellness Club at North Central as well as health and fitness teacher at Lewis and Clark, Heather Lefriec. We head to Hutton Elementary School and talk with school counselor Gretchen Snider and navigating teaching students social and emotional learning. Student athletes at Ferris High School have a candid conversation with Taylor Brooks (Scheib) about the pressures of high school and how they keep a positive attitude on the field and in the halls.
