Continually updated, this is an excellent tool to teach students why understanding the internet, social media and more is so important.

All content in Teen Health & Wellness is created for teens with their unique concerns and perspective in mind. Information throughout is presented using a sensitive, respectful, and age-appropriate approach. Teen-friendly articles makes complex topics understandable. They also give insight into the teen experience—crucial for parents, teachers, librarians, therapists, and others who are a part of teens’ lives and support them.
NoodleTools is offered to all of our schools at NO COST! This is an online tool that helps students track all of their resources citations, holds all of their notes and helps them organize thoughts.
