Summary

The board approved a 2627 contract with Crosswinds Counseling Service to expand school-based mental-health services, including increased counseling hours at Woodside to address rising enrollment.

District staff presented a recommendation to approve the 2627 Crosswinds Counseling Service contract intended to expand school-based mental-health supports for students. The presenter said the partnership "supports the mental health pillar from our district strategic plan by expanding access to school based mental health services for our students" and noted the contract adds counseling hours at Woodside to better meet enrollment growth.

Board members asked procedural questions about placement on rosters and access; staff answered that openings are filled immediately and that the district is "keeping the list going" to admit students as spots open. The board moved, seconded and approved the contract by voice vote.
