School Safety

For Parents & Families

This has been a difficult time for our whole community, and especially for our students. Our commitment to protecting the safety and securing the well-being of your children remains strong, and your feedback is incredibly important to us.

USN's Counseling Department, in support of our school’s mission,  delivers a comprehensive K-12 school counseling program that provides equitable services for all students, with mental health and well-being as the core element of educational success. Parents and families have access to the Counseling Group Page, which offers support services, events, and session scheduling for students and parents. Click the topics tab at the top of the Resource Board to view parent education workshops as well as suggested books, articles, videos, podcasts, and more. We also encourage your students to access resources available to them through the Student Mental Health Coalition.

To learn more about supporting your child with sensitive topics such as sexual misconduct, sexual abuse, and grooming, please reach out to the Counseling Department, which includes four in-house counselors to support students on a daily basis:
