Moorhead Area Public Schools - Building Pathways to Success

Last week, the Cass Clay Suicide Prevention Coalition held a Suicide Prevention Summit that featured 8 of our Moorhead High School students presenting on 988 and Sources of Strength. The participating students were Rowan George, Rachel Hali, Milo Ehlers, Jaxen Gunkel, Emma Gibson, Olivia Irion, Kai Elgenedy and Bridger Hanson, who shared his journey with mental health and shared a song he wrote about it.
We are proud of our students in MAPs for using their voices to help others who may need to hear it, and their words were powerful and impactful to all who attended this event.🧡 #FoundationsForTheFuture
