Thanks for stopping by to this important petition.  Here are 3 of the many reasons to make this happen. 

Every year we loose tons of students to suicide. It is the 3rd leading cause to death in teens to 24 year old. Teaching mental health in schools can help students understand their emotions, know how to react to failure in a positive way as well as help them react to bullies. 

They can understand more about themselves to help learn.  At a early age some students may have already developed a mental disorder.  Understanding their certain disorder can help them learn in their own unquie way of learning. 

Some ways we can achieve this is. Mental health days can be issue through the school councilor if a student is not in the right mind set for school. Only if they NEED it. If they don't they can simply sit outside of the class to rest before returning to classes. That way it's fair. Maybe once a day the students can all meet with the school counselor to talk about problems and issues in their school life or personal. Younger students can draw how they feel. 5th grade and up can write down how they feel and fill out a how do you feel chart. Fidgets can be earn when they do a daily mental health activity a day? 

Thanks again for taking the time to read this. It's very important to me personally who has notice my mental health getting in the way of my academic learning. If your not alone please help me make this a reality and sign. Have a good morning, day or night.
