SAC CornerSupporting Students in being happy, healthy, & safe!

Dear Student Supporters (including students themselves),

This page will be a place to find access and connection to resources for mental health, substance use issues, and updates from the SAC world. Thank you for stopping by to check out what is here, and thank you for being a supporter of a student (maybe multiple)!


What is a SAC?
As of the 20-21 school year, the Haddonfield School District has created a Student Assistance Counselor (SAC) position. The role is to help students with anxiety, stress, substance awareness, suicidal ideation, social concerns, healthy relationships, coping skills, and more. Although a district wide position, the SAC home base is out of the high school. I can be found in A104 - and I hope you'll come by and say hi!


Best,

Holly Penna

Dear Mom and Dad, Please Stick With Me

Dear Mom and Dad, Please stick with me. I can't think clearly right now because there is a rather substantial section of my prefrontal cortex missing. It's a fairly important chunk, something having to do with rational thought. You see, it won't be fully developed until I'm about 25.

The Tea

Remember that you can't put the toothpaste back in the tube, once it is said or posted - it is out there. Be very mindful of what you say and to who.
