In support of students' emotional health as well as academic success, NJUHSD offers parents the opportunity to have their students participate in a free emotional health check up by What's Up Wellness Checkups. The checkups are offered by the NJUSHD STARS program. More information can be found at www.whatsupwellness.com. The program is FREE, completely voluntary, and confidential.
Parent consent is required and can be found HERE. It is a one-time screening. Parents are only notified if further support is recommended or requested by their students.
