Seeker Clinic Partners with Local District for Free Health Screenings and Support

Mental health support took a prominent role at the Ogden City School District Board of Education meeting on August 14, 2025, as board members discussed the Seeker Clinic, a vital community partner providing mental health resources for uninsured individuals. The clinic not only offers essential services but also organizes free health screenings, with the next event scheduled for September 27 from 9 AM to 1 PM. Board members emphasized the importance of promoting these resources to ensure that community members are aware of the support available to them.

In addition to mental health initiatives, the board revisited policy 9.416, focusing on lunch periods for students. Discussions highlighted the need to ensure that students have adequate time to eat without feeling rushed, addressing concerns that some students may be discarding food due to time constraints. The board also noted the importance of incorporating mental health references into this policy, reflecting a growing commitment to student well-being.

As the district continues to strengthen its partnerships and policies, the focus on mental health and student welfare remains a top priority, with anticipated outcomes aimed at enhancing support systems for all students and community members.
