Stacy Middle School
Stacy Middle School partnered with the Hockomock YMCA and four other school districts to develop the first annual “Mental Wellness Summit” for grades 6 and 7. The Summit was hosted at the Hurley Family Branch in North Attleboro, on May 17.
Each school district chose ten students who embody leadership, are in good academic standing, and have a positive attitude towards inclusion and mental health. The goal is for students to take back what they learned and to work with the administration to implement program ideas within their school.
