MARYSVILLE, Wash. A group of high school seniors is pushing the Marysville School District for more mental health resources. They are worried that, as students eventually head back to the classroom, they’ll need in-school support to help with the emotional toll of the past year. There was definitely times I felt like I wanted to give up,” said Kaden Vongsa, a senior at Marysville Getchell High School.
