TEEN HEALTH AND WELLNESS RESOURCE
Students and parents have access to the Teen Health & Wellness Database via the THS Library. In order to access the information included in this valuable site, you'll need to login. Your child may already be familiar with it, so feel free to explore the site with them! 

The web address is https://teenhealthandwellness.com/

The login space is on the top left corner of the page.

Username: tollandhs

Password: health
The left sidebar of the page is the categories that you may browse, but you can also use the search bar on the top right to search for any topic related to teen health and wellness. 

At the moment they have some great age-appropriate resources specific to COVID-19 that may make discussing it with your family.

The database homepage is designed to be user friendly, but if you encounter any issues, just contact school library media specialist, Jess Fontaine, at jfontaine@tolland.k12.ct.us
