This week we are raising awareness of the impact that bullying has on mental health. Students who are bullied are more likely to develop problems like depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and self-destructive behavior. How can you help? Be an UPSTANDER, NOT a bystander! Students can help by reporting instances of bullying and cyberbullying. If you see something, say something to a trusted adult!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 Check your email to cast your vote for this year\u2019s Homecoming King and Queen &#8211; check your email for the google form sent out just prior to 8am this morning.\u00a0 Voting closes at 2:30 tomorrow.\u00a0 \u00a0 The Media Center will be closed all morning, during lunches and during Block 6 today due to\u00a0 ASVAB [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":371,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-2305","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-announcements","7":"entry","8":"override"},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nhvweb.net\/vhs\/morning-announcements\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2305","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nhvweb.net\/vhs\/morning-announcements\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nhvweb.net\/vhs\/morning-announcements\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nhvweb.net\/vhs\/morning-announcements\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/371"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nhvweb.net\/vhs\/morning-announcements\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2305"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.nhvweb.net\/vhs\/morning-announcements\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2305\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2306,"href":"https:\/\/www.nhvweb.net\/vhs\/morning-announcements\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2305\/revisions\/2306"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nhvweb.net\/vhs\/morning-announcements\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2305"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nhvweb.net\/vhs\/morning-announcements\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2305"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nhvweb.net\/vhs\/morning-announcements\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2305"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
