The North Hills School District Board of Education made significant strides in supporting student well-being during their meeting on September 4, 2025. A key decision was the approval of two memorandums of understanding aimed at enhancing mental health and counseling services for students.
The first agreement with Crisis Center North will provide school-based counseling services for students affected by dating or domestic violence, along with prevention education programs. This initiative, which comes at an annual cost of $2,500, includes programs designed to empower students and foster healthy relationships.
The second memorandum with Diversified Care Management will see North Hills School District's SAP counselors serve as advisers for the Stand Together program. This student-led initiative aims to reduce the stigma surrounding mental health and substance use, promoting positive relationships within the school community.
In addition to these mental health initiatives, the board announced that the math support program at the high school will now have full coverage every period, ensuring students receive the necessary academic assistance.
The meeting also highlighted the upcoming Soccer Fest at Martarelli Stadium on September 6, which promises a day of free soccer matches, encouraging community engagement.
In a notable personnel decision, the board voted to extend Superintendent Dr. Mannarino's contract through 2029, recognizing his two decades of service and commitment to the district's educational mission.
The board's next meeting is scheduled for September 18, where further discussions and decisions will continue to shape the educational landscape for North Hills students.
