The new nationwide 988 three-digit dialing code will route callers to the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline, previously known as the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (NSPL).
Michigan residents in crisis or distress can connect via phone, text, or chat with suicide prevention, mental health, and substance misuse support specialists using a nationwide, easier-to-dial phone number – 988. Calls to 988 are routed to Michigan 988 Centers. Like 911 and other national 3-digit phone numbers, 988 was created to be easier to remember and make crisis care easier to access.
We need you here!
Congratulations to Merritt Elementary on earning statewide recognition on their efforts in Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (PBIS), which focuses on what it means to behave like a Brandywine Bobcat!
"I really want to acknowledge the energy and the time and the commitment that the entire building puts into PBIS to make sure it's successful. It's really the work of our teachers and staff." Principal Matt Severin said.
Attention Middle School Boys! Basketball tryouts are THIS week!
Thank you to Anthony Ianni, Youth Academy Liaison for the Michigan Department of Civil Rights, for coming to talk to students at the middle/senior high school today about bullying.
His message says it all.
“Be careful what you say and do to others, because you never know who that person might become in the future."
And most importantly, “Don’t just go out and be the change, but go out and MAKE that change.”
Be kind, Bobcats!
We won $1,000!
