NOTES FROM THE PRINCIPAL
You may or may not be aware of the new Netfix series 13 Reasons Why that has
captured the attention of teens across the nation. The series covers some sensitive topics including bullying, drugs and drinking, rape and suicide. Here you will find a handout to guide you through talking points with your child, should you find them appropriate. An additional resource is www.childmind.org which offers information on a number of topics relevant to children and teens.
Please do not hesitate to reach out to your child’s counselor and/or a trusted staff member if you need additional resources or support.
