The Board of Education of Northern Valley Schools, U.S.D. #212, believes that each individual child should be provided with an educational program that is best suited to meet the needs and interests of that individual, and provide opportunity for learning experiences designed to promote behavioral change and maturation that will effect continuing satisfactory adjustment to life.
Northern Valley Staff who engage with students have been trained in at least one hour of suicide prevention training that addresses risk and protective factors for prevention signaling, screening protocols and expectations, safe reintegration practices and postvention measures.
Each building in the district has identified members who are primary and secondary contacts as well as contacts available for mental health interventions and consultations.
The district has a plan for prevention, intervention, reintegration, and postvention approved by the local Board of Education and available, either in print or electronically, for parents to view.
