The intention of the class is not to elicit reports personal experiences with mental health from learners. If the learner begins to share any personal mental health concerns I will kindly ask the learner to refrain from further discussion in front of the class and to continue the conversation with a trusted adult. If a learner ever shares something that is concerning, I will reach out to parents after class depending on the context of the information
Note: Review Outschool's Community Standards before class to ensure that learners remember to keep personal information private.
