📰 What’s In the News: Helping Kids Handle Big Emotions

We love this! Students at McClellan Elementary in the West Jefferson Hills School District are getting a powerful lesson in mental wellness — thanks to the “Chill Mobile”, a mindfulness RV from Allegheny Health Network and Pirates Charities. 

Inside the space-themed RV, students learn coping tools like deep-breathing, helping them reset when they feel anxiety, sadness, or anger.  Teachers also received “chill corner” kits, so calming spaces can live right in the classroom. 

School leaders say it’s not just about feeling better — it’s about creating a foundation for learning. When students understand and manage their emotions, they’re more present and ready to learn. 

The Chill Mobile will return two more times this school year and is also heading to Gill Hall Elementary.  #412
