Welcome Back Designers!
Welcome to the 2022-23 school year! We are excited to have you as a part of the Da Vinci Design community and are looking forward to a great year together.
We view your student’s mental health and well-being as a priority for their success at this school. In support of this, we have invested in several resources that you can access whenever you need help. Remember, you are not alone, and it is a true act of bravery and strength to seek help.
We encourage students to visit the on-campus resources and save the community resources so they can access them if they or someone they know needs help.
On campus:
- Students can access help by visiting their school counselor. Students can stop by counselors office or email them to set up an appointment.
