CK High School suicide prevention team:

Katherine Izzi (school counselor) and Kathy Forster (school nurse) provided support to the 12 members. The team facilitated 28 classroom presentations and distributed key chains and stickers to students at the high school as well as at Central Kitsap Junior High School and Klahowya Secondary School. They wrote an article for the high school newspaper, handed out suicide awareness information at lunch hours and conducted an all-school broadcast for prevention awareness. A total of 2,130 students in the Central Kitsap School District were impacted by these efforts!
