The Hood River County School District board held a worksession to discuss mental health support for students. Interim District Superintendent Bill Newton says they had a number of community partners take part in the meeting as all involved shared the levels of support they provide both students and parents. Newton says they have increased the number of counselors and student support specialists in schools to help with mental health needs. But he adds the worksession showed there is more need out there than the level of support both the district and their community partners are currently providing.
