We are writing to make you aware of a major safety concern facing our society at this time – fentanyl overdoses. As you may have heard in the recent tragic news, teenagers have died or have been hospitalized due to fentanyl overdoses both on southern California school campuses and at home.
 
Fentanyl deaths are projected to double in the year ahead.  Drug cartels are making illicit fentanyl and purposely and deceptively adding it to other drugs, even prescription drugs, to make them cheaper, more powerful, more addictive, and more dangerous.  Fentanyl can be added to any drug or pill without any visible signs, making it impossible for anyone to know if they are ingesting this deadly substance until it is too late. 
 
Students, we care about you and want only the best for you.  Please be safe and make good decisions. Do not take any pills unless prescribed by a doctor.  Do not take any pills or drugs given to you, whether it be by a friend or stranger - you simply don’t know if even just one pill might hurt you. 
 
These two videos show the dangers of this drug.

College and Career Unit presentation

On Friday, 2/2/24, we covered our College and Career unit that aligns with course registration. Please find the pdf of the presentation below.

Family Support Group

The teen and adolescent years are a time of transition from childhood into adulthood. Adolescents and teens often struggle with being dependent on their parents while having a strong desire to be independent. At the same time, they may be facing a number of pressures, from friends to fit in and from parents to do well in school or sports. As a result many suffer from depression and anxiety.
With over 20 years in the practice Nancy Stoops and her registered therapy dog Jaida, will help you and your family live a healthy lifestyle by helping you gain the skills for parenting without the pain, reaching realistic goals,  coping through the pressures of being an adolescent or teen, handling anxiety of starting a new school year,  bullying, building healthy friendships and more. The benefits of the support group are endless and can handle an array of counseling needs.
The group meets every Monday from 6pm-8pm at the Walnut Senior Center. No reservations needed. See pdf below.
