Counseling Resources
Help Is Available:
Seek help from a trusted adult (school counselor, parent, teacher) if you, or a friend, are feeling depressed, suicidal, or just need to talk. This is a trying time for all in our school and community, and it is important to support and look out for one another during this time.
As a student: If you are concerned about a friend, talk to a trusted adult.
As a parent/guardian: If you are concerned about your child, please contact the high school counseling office at 412-372-0447.
Feelings of Anger: It is okay to feel angry. Feeling angry doesn’t mean that you don’t care. You can be angry at someone’s behavior and still care deeply about that person.
Feelings of Responsibility: This death is not your fault; we can’t always predict or control another person’s behavior
