Jonathan Law’s SAVE Promise Club participated in “Say Something Week” during the week of March 3-7.  

The club decided to participate in this week to encourage people to talk about mental health and speak up if they see someone who is struggling. 

“The club decided to do Say Something Week because it holds a very important message,” Junior Vice President Sarah McCann said. “We want everyone to learn the warning signs of someone who may be in danger of harming themselves or others and for people to know there are safe spaces around the school, that’s why we emphasize trusted adults.”

Members said the week was successful and that it created a safe space between teachers and students. On Trusted Adult Tuesday, many teachers wore Trusted Adult sunglasses and were awarded a Trusted Adult Award.

“My favorite part of this week was the Trusted Adult posters,” junior Ava Ambrusco said. “I think it was a great way to show your trusted adult, that they are your trusted adult.”

There were many activities for all classes to do throughout the week. Club Advisor Ms.Healy said the activities helped to spread a powerful message.

“I feel like the week went well,” Healy said. “Students really enjoyed the positive messages posted around the building, wearing their PJs to school, and everyone loves the fun glasses that get passed around.”

Sophomore August Oliveira participated in many activities throughout the week to show her support for SAVE and to spread awareness. 

“I really enjoyed the different activities I did and thought they were a good way to get everyone involved,”  Oliveira said. “I would definitely participate in this week again.”
