Dear Parents/ Guardians,

In 10 grade Heath class, we are currently covering the mental health unit.  As a supplement to this unit, we are utilizing a youth curriculum for the awareness and prevention of youth suicide from The Jason Foundation called “A Promise for Tomorrow.”  Mr. Gruchow, our health teacher, and Mrs. Saxton, our school social worker, are teaching the unit together.

 As part of the curriculum, we will be showing a DVD regarding this subject.  The DVD involves two adolescents and a suicide.  As this is a very sensitive subject, we want you to be aware that your adolescent will be viewing this DVD.  We encourage you to discuss the video with your adolescent and contact us if you have any questions or concerns.  You will also find additional information regarding this curriculum on the website www.jasonfoundation.com.

Sincerely,

Brandon Gruchow                                    

Dawn Saxton

Friday: This lesson will review the video, "Choices,"and students will discuss what to do if approached or aware of a friend who is contemplating suicide.
