Mental Health

Welcome to the Charles County Public Schools Mental Health webpage!

Mental Health

Good mental health is important for everyone, and as important as physical health to our quality of life. Mental health is not simply the absence of mental illness, but also means having the skills necessary to cope with life's challenges. If ignored, mental health problems can interfere with children’s learning, development, relationships and physical health.
