New Mental Health Support for Swain Students and Families!
Swain County Schools is proud to partner with Cartwheel, a teletherapy service that provides professional mental health care for students.
Families now have the option to self-refer for support outside of school hours and during the summer—making it easier than ever to access help when it's needed most.
Cartwheel connects families to licensed clinicians through secure, virtual sessions that are private, convenient, and effective.
To learn more or refer your student, visit: https://bit.ly/swaincartwheel

Let’s continue to support the mental health and well-being of our students, every step of the way.
