What do you think of the Wellness Days this year?

“I like the idea of them and the thought of giving kids and teachers a break and reminding people about wellness and mental health. I think that the timing of them with the breaks and term ending and stuff added more stress to kids with testing instead of relaxing. I think that they should be better explained on why we are having them because I didn’t know that it was a religious holiday until the week ahead came out.”

What do you think of the Wellness Days this year?

“I think that they are okay; it’s more stress-free, and there are not a lot of tests. I would rather have a day during the holidays rather than have a wellness day. But, for example, my friend has a lot of tests on Friday, so at the same time people get more stressed.”
