MCHS is excited to continue our partnership with Chestnut Health in Bloomington. Their prevention coordinators, Grace and Collin, are always looking at ways to support our students and community. The organization has been super supportive of Mrs. Harbourn’s school counseling projects. They have funded therapeutic workbooks, mental health supports for youth athletes, vision board kits, and now mental health survival bookbags. They dropped off 50 book bags filled with items that encourage self-care. If you need a book bag, please contact Mrs. Harbourn.
