Greetings Adesoye College community! May's newletter

is dedicated to Mental Health awareness. Globally during

the month of May schools and organizations take time to

bring more awareness to the issue of Mental Health.

Adesoye College is dedicated to academic excellence as

well as student mental wellness. The World Health

Organization (WHO) research indicates, "half of all mental

health conditions start by 14 years of age, but most cases

are undetected and untreated." Thus, it's most important

to bring Mental Health awareness.

Often, students, parents and teachers may experience

increased feelings of anxiety and stress during this time,

due to the high stakes exams. However, ACO is being

proactive in providing preventive strategies that can

minimize these feelings.

Please enjoy our May Newsletter! Lime Green is the MH

awareness color. Blessing to you!
