Patrick Henry recently received a $10,000 grant from a local organization called Better South Dakota. Better South Dakota is aimed at raising awareness for mental health and suicide prevention in South Dakota. Each year Better South Dakota partners with one educational institution to award their "Counseling for Kids" grant. Patrick Henry plans to use the funds to provide professional development that focuses on supporting students and their mental health along with providing mental health resources for students and families. Patrick Henry Middle School was awarded during a ceremony at the El Riad Shrine on Saturday, January 25. For more information on Better South Dakota, check out their website: www.bettersd.org
