News summary

As students of all ages return to school, mental health experts and organizations emphasize the importance of support and preparation to manage anxiety and stress during this transition. The National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) offers free resources, including virtual sessions to help parents and educators recognize mental health challenges and practical strategies to support children. Experts like Dr. Kendra Bircher highlight the normalcy of anxiety during new experiences and advise parents to watch for behavioral changes as signs of distress. Additional recommendations include health checkups, proper hygiene, and nutrition to promote physical well-being, as advised by Dr. Sana Haq and Dr. Nicole Schneider. For neurodivergent students with learning differences such as ADHD or dyslexia, psychologist Andrew Kahn stresses the importance of parental advocacy and tailored strategies to help these students succeed. Across these perspectives, the focus remains on equipping families with tools and resources to foster confidence and emotional resilience as students navigate the demands of the school year.
