The High school my son goes to does a mental health week during their “summit for justice” week. They have speakers come and discuss issues like anxiety and depression in the high school athlete, for example. Last year they actually closed the school for a day in the middle of the week, marking it as a “mental health day” and when they returned to school they discussed what each student did to relax or try and unwind on their mental health day. That meant that the teachers and other staff had the day off as well which was nice as I also work at the school.
