It sounds like the county is being responsive to the parents who complained about their children's mental health over the past 1.5 years. Seems like people complain no matter what they do and you really can't please everyone.[/quote]

oh please. We complained about mental health because we wanted schools open. Not because we wanted a curriculum on “SEL” that has zero evidence base. [/quote]

So you admit you never actually cared about mental health just like you never did before? Amazing. Nothing is ever going to change. Everyone said and knew you were using mental health as an excuse but to be so blatant about it…pretty gross.[/quote]

I care very much about mental health -- so much so that I am very attuned to evidence-based practices and the impact of social isolation, as well as the disruption of services for kids with IEPs. This "curriculum" does absolutely zero to solve any of those problems. It's shockingly stupid and wasteful.  I am 100% in favor of ACTUAL mental health supports, such as a commitment to in-person school, funding of special ed staff, provision of evidence-based mental health services.  [/quote]
