Policies in Public Schools

United States

(From article) -  “ There has been a growing popularity with school-based mental health services in United States public school systems, in which schools have their students covered for mental health care.[citation needed]

NPR article touches up on the topic that states in the United States have incorporated mental health services to students enrolled in school, especially since the pandemic. These services are not offered in all states, but a lot of places have incorporated “anti-bullying and anti-discrimination” laws.

''This specific article is a nice reference to incorporate into this section since it highlights the same information that editor noted in the article. It also provides data and specific states names. Since this section needed citations, I’m trying to fill in the missing ends to make it more refined.''

Ontario conducts a survey every year to keep track of how effective policies are for public schools. Administered by People for Education, the 2022-23 annual report provided insight into the lack of mental health support for students and how inaccessible specialists are to not only the students, but the educators.

''This section isn't very neutral. The tone and deliverance sounds bias because they are giving a lot of suggestions on why schools and teachers should do to help maintain students' mental health. An unbiased, neutral tone would see both sides and not provide sympathy from a student's perspective. It appears as a student could have written this section.''
