That\u2019s one reason\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.schoolmentalhealth.org\/Resources\/Foundations-of-School-Mental-Health\/\">school mental health professionals<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 who include psychologists, counselors and social workers \u2013 are so essential.<\/p>\n<p>As many kids resume instruction this fall, schools can serve as\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/s12310-018-9262-7\">critical access points for mental health services<\/a>. But the intensity of challenges students face coupled with school mental health workforce\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasponline.org\/research-and-policy\/policy-priorities\/critical-policy-issues\/shortage-of-school-psychologists\">shortages<\/a>\u00a0is a serious concern.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Key issues<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>As\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/scholar.google.com\/citations?user=C9YZiOsAAAAJ&amp;hl=en\">school psychology professors<\/a>\u00a0who\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/scholar.google.com\/citations?hl=en&amp;user=wP7uXtkAAAAJ\">train future school psychologists<\/a>, we are used to requests by K-12 schools for potential applicants to fill their open positions. Never before have we received this volume of contacts regarding\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ctreap.net\/jobsrch.php?srch=200&amp;position=280\">unfilled positions<\/a>\u00a0this close to the start of the school year.<\/p>\n<p>As researchers on school mental health, we believe this shortage is a serious problem given the increase in mental health challenges, such as anxiety, gaps in social skills and grief, that schools can expect to see in returning students.<\/p>\n<p>Anxiety should be expected given current\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencemag.org\/news\/2021\/08\/what-does-delta-variant-have-store-us-we-asked-coronavirus-experts\">COVID-related<\/a>\u00a0uncertainties. However, problems arise when those fears or worries prevent children from being able to complete the expected tasks of everyday life.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, school closures and disruptions have led to lost opportunities for students to build social skills. A\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mckinsey.com\/industries\/public-and-social-sector\/our-insights\/covid-19-and-education-the-lingering-effects-of-unfinished-learning\">McKinsey &amp; Co. analysis found<\/a>\u00a0the pandemic set K-12 students back by four to five months, on average, in math and reading during the 2020-2021 school year. Learning loss also extends to social skills. These losses may be particularly profound for the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/remote-kindergarten-during-covid-19-could-impact-this-generation-of-kids-for-their-lifetime-11620552653\">youngest students<\/a>, who may have missed developmental opportunities such as learning to get along with others.<\/p>\n<p>And it\u2019s important to remember the sheer number of children under 18 who have lost a loved one during the pandemic. A study published in July 2021 estimates that\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1016\/S0140-6736(21)01253-8\">more than 1 out of every 1,000 children in the U.S.<\/a>\u00a0lost a primary caregiver due to COVID-19.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Hiring more school psychologists<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Hiring more school psychologists may not be simple. The\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasponline.org\/research-and-policy\/policy-priorities\/critical-policy-issues\/shortage-of-school-psychologists\">National Association of School Psychologists<\/a>\u00a0recommends a ratio of 1 psychologist for every 500 students. Yet current estimates suggest a national ratio of 1-to-1,211. It\u2019s like having to teach a class of 60 instead of 25 students.<\/p>\n<p>Shortages are\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasponline.org\/resources-and-publications\/resources-and-podcasts\/school-psychology\/shortages-in-school-psychology-resource-guide\">particularly severe<\/a>\u00a0in rural regions.

Workforce increases, however, must be coupled with attention to readying all school personnel to cope with students\u2019 anxiety, grief and gaps in social skills.<\/p>\n<p>For example, when it comes to anxiety, schools can help students build both\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/psycnet.apa.org\/fulltext\/2020-52963-001.pdf\">tolerance of uncertainty and coping skills<\/a>\u00a0through strategies such as seeking support,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/sdlab.fas.harvard.edu\/cognitive-reappraisal\/positive-reframing-and-examining-evidence\">positive reframing<\/a>, humor and acceptance. School mental health professionals can train other staff members on simple strategies to use in a nurturing relationship. Long-term benefits such as sense of belonging can happen when each student has an informal\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.doi.org\/10.26300\/96bs-6m26\">mentoring relationship<\/a>\u00a0that offers emotional nurturance and practical help.<\/p>\n<p>More schools have adopted\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/0031721718815668\">social-emotional learning curriculums<\/a>\u00a0in recent years. However, additional time may be needed to teach and reinforce basic skills such as taking turns and sharing.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, school mental health personnel can assist with defining a clear process for identifying who needs help, and be ready to share\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.unicef.org\/parenting\/child-care\/how-talk-your-children-about-death-loved-one?fbclid=IwAR287U1mmqvLVqJYwYQQGqUSZmdKAHcp6XIc2Yd4_NUXkCior2eind0lcYE\">resources about grief<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/health.tki.org.nz\/Key-collections\/Curriculum-in-action\/Change-loss-and-grief\/The-developmental-stages-of-children-and-their-responses-to-loss\">how kids respond<\/a>\u00a0to loss.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Partnering with families and communities<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Even with these efforts, schools cannot be expected to identify and meet all young people\u2019s mental health needs. Strong partnerships with families and communities are critical.<\/p>\n<p>Seeking input from families may offer valuable information about student experiences. This might be done, for example, by\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/csch.uconn.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2206\/2020\/06\/CSCH-Report-Responding-to-COVID-19-Planning-for-Trauma-Informed-Assessment-in-Schools-Final-June-2020.pdf\">adding questions<\/a>\u00a0to beginning-of-the-year student forms. Knowing how families are experiencing loss or insecurities, for example, can help school mental health personnel plan for and target supports.<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedaily.com\/releases\/2021\/08\/210809112840.htm\">youth mental health crisis<\/a>\u00a0requires a comprehensive response.
