5. The School Counseling department is here again to share with you some more information about Mental Health awareness month. Sleep plays a vital role in good health and our mental well- being. Having a proper sleep routine is essential to brain development and improving our emotional state. We need sleep to keep us healthy, active and able to perform our best. When we are well rested we perform better in school. This helps our mood and we can solve problems more effectively. It is recommended by the Sleep Council that kids ages 7-11 need an average 10-12 hours of sleep, and teens require 8-9 hours per night.” So think about how much sleep you are getting and what you can do to improve your sleep routine.
