Mental Health Awareness Month

May is National Mental Health Awareness month, and we are proud to be celebrating across the district! As part of our celebration we’ll host “Mental Health Mondays” by posting a video from one of our school counselors each week. These videos will provide helpful tips and resources, and will also provide some insight on how we support mental health within our schools.

CLICK HERE for this week’s video from McCulloch Counselor, Tamra Lankford. She walks us through some ideas to help us be preventative and restorative when it comes to our mental health. Check it out!

Dire Need for Bus Drivers!

Republic School District proudly offers bus services for ALL students in our district! Providing this service requires a large number of trained drivers, and we need more! To avoid having to extend the length of current bus routes, spending funds on chartering buses (who are also seeing driver shortages) and/or reducing the number of trips and experiences for students outside our campuses...WE NEED MORE BUS DRIVERS!

Please share this opportunity with anyone that is interested in making an impact on students and filling this need! CLICK HERE FOR DETAILS AND TO APPLY!
