East Holmes Local Schools is committed to supporting the mental health and well-being of our students. Through partnerships with The Village Network and Anazao Community Partners, we offer school-based mental health services to help students navigate challenges, build resilience, and thrive in and out of the classroom.
Parents can access a range of support for their students, including weekly or biweekly check-ins and full outpatient mental health services. Services also include classroom instruction on topics such as anxiety, grief and loss, as well as relationships with friends.
Parents interested in learning more or initiating services can contact Mr. Mark Hamsher, Dean of Students, in the Hiland School Counseling Office at 330-893-2626 ext. 1111 or mark.hamsher@eastholmes.org.

Join us in welcoming Megan Kinsey to the district as a 1st Grade teacher at Flat Ridge!
Fun fact: “I love playing golf. I didn't play when I was younger, but now I enjoy getting outside, practicing my swing, and challenging myself to get better. It reminds me a lot of learning in school- sometimes it's tricky at first, but with patience and practice, you improve!”
