Student mental health is a significant concern in schools, and it’s important for teachers and school staff to be able to recognize warning signs that a student may be struggling.

Self-harm is often a warning sign of other mental health issues that students may be experiencing. Up to 60% of adolescents will self-harm at least once, and 50% will self-harm more than once. It can affect students of all backgrounds, although some groups may be more at risk.

It’s crucial that school districts provide resources and professional development to help teachers and staff identify and address self-harm.
