A new report released by Cardus in partnership with the Association of Christian Schools International and the School Counseling Mental Health Initiative at Denver Seminary found that most Christian SCHOOL EDUCATORS SURVEYED RATED STUDENT MENTAL HEALTH FAVORABLY, even as national concerns about youth well--being continue to grow.
The report, titled "Mental Health and Well--Being in Christian Schools,"surveyed more than 1,400 Christian educators across the U.S. in late 2024. It examined perceptions of student wellness, educator well--being, and school practices related to mental health.
According to the findings, 80% of respondents rated the overall mental health students at their schools as "good" or "excellent."
Dr. Lynn E. Swaner, president pf Cardus U.S., said results were encouraging but should prompt further study.
Researchers also found a strong relationship between educator well--being and perceptions of student mental health, suggesting that staff wellness may play a key role in student outcomes.
