September is National Su***de Prevention Awareness Month. SAMHSA’s theme this year is Stronger Together: Connect. Support. Prevent. Su***de prevention is not one moment or one person's job. It lives in the relationships we build, the support we offer, and the communities we create together. Learn more about ways to give and find support in the September Family Newsletter and on cmcss.net.

September Feature: Grateful for Support
Behind every successful student is a caring network of educators, friends, and families who go the extra mile each day. Teachers provide encouragement, guidance, and personalized support that help students build confidence both in and outside of the classroom. Through meaningful relationships, our schools create spaces where every learner can thrive.
