This new resource offers COVID-19-related mental health support for all Texans. People can call the
Statewide COVID-19 Mental Health Support Line 24 hours a day, 7 days a week toll-free at 833-986-1919.

TEA has also created a list of Mental Health resources for this time. Please click here to access it!
During this unusual and unprecedented time we want to assure you that your counselors are here for you. In the coming days we will be setting up Google classrooms by grade level and sharing resources with you. We are currently working with several colleges to bring you virtual college visits, we are monitoring grades and graduation requirements, working with local scholarship donors regarding your applications among other things. We want to ensure that you are receiving the academic and mental health support that you need.
We are only an email away. Please reach out to us if you need anything at all.

TSI Testing Update due to COVID 19 concerns:
Monday, April 6, the Weatherford College Testing Center will be offering the TSI with proctoring conducted via Zoom. To schedule testing, the students need to call the Testing Center at 817-598-6383 and leave a voicemail with their contact information. A testing center staff member will call the student to schedule a testing time. Students will need a webcam and microphone, and the test will cost the usual $25 fee.
In light of our extended closure, we wanted to continue to bring you the Brown Bag College visite! Several Colleges have agreed to host Zoom virtual college visits so that you can see what their schools have to offer and ask questions. If you are not familiar with Zoom it is an online meeting platform that is helping us meet together as groups while staying safe at home. You can participate on your phone or on a computer. Download the Zoom app and then at the meeting time either click on these links or enter the meeting ID (the numbers after the j/)
Here are the colleges presenting this week:
Wednesday 4/1 @ 2:30:
UNT (University of North Texas)
Thursday 4/2 @ 11:00:
UTA (University of Texas – Arlington)
Send Ms. Roper an email and let her know if you will be able to attend so we have an idea of how many can participate. If there are other colleges you would like to “visit” us, please send an email to Ms. Roper and we can get in touch with them. vroper@weatherfordisd.com
