Welcome to our John O'Connell Wellness Center
The O'Connell Wellness Program offers free confidential (private) support to all O'Connell students.
Whether you're feeling stressed, worried, sad, angry, fighting with friends or family, have questions about sex or drugs, need to see our nurse, need to get tested for STDs, want to make an appointment at a local health center, want therapy, or want to share your goals and accomplishments from us-we are here to support you!
Stop by the Wellness Center, Room 105, before school, during lunch or after school (drop-in hours no pass necessary) and we will help you find the support that you need. You can also come in and make an appointment with any of us. You need a green pass signed by your teacher to come down during class.
