The Harbor Beach Community Schools family extends our thoughts and prayers to the family of the missing community member, Shana Umbreit. We here at HBCS share the sense of concern with the entire community.
The District’s mental health professionals (Counselors and Social Workers) are available to students, staff and/or parents and community members if needed.
We know students will reach out to adults they are close to, which in most cases are their parents or an educator. Here is a link from the Child Mind Institute (CMI) to guide parents as they talk to children about tragic events.
