OCTOBER 2025 NEWSLETTER_Page_5
On September 28th, a team of VCPS employees participated in the Out of the Darkness Walk, organized by the American Suicide Foundation. Last year, this walk and its fundraising directly impacted our ability to offer resources and speakers for our VC Jr./Sr. High students. We are pleased to welcome those speakers back again this year on September 29th, September 30th, and October 2nd to address our 7th-12th-grade students on the topic of Teen Mental Health. This presentation focuses on students' learning about teen mental health and the signs to recognize when a person is struggling. They also provide a plethora of resources for students during their presentation.

A reminder to anyone who needs to reach out to the school regarding your student’s mental health—please connect with your school to get in touch with the appropriate person:

Natalie Karges – School Support Specialist, Jefferson (PK–3)
Vanessa Kocka – School Counselor, Washington (4–6)
Summer Burchill – School Counselor, VC Jr./Sr. High (7–9)
Beatrice Streitz – School Counselor, VC Jr./Sr. High (10–12)
Allison Swenson – School Social Worker, Sheyenne Valley Special Education Unit
Sean Hagen – School Resource Officer, VCPS
