Abstract: The COVID-19 crisis has caused a major disruption to students and staff within schools. As a result, COVID-19 has likely had a negative impact on mental health. This study investigated via an online survey, the mental health impact of the COVID-19 crisis on school counselors, teachers, and school social workers. In addition, the study examined these staff members' perspectives on the mental health of the students they worked with. Results indicated students are displaying a variety of distress behavior ranging from fearfulness, loss of temper, and peer problems. Staff indicated they felt confident reassuring students of safety, answering questions about COVID-19, and asking about students' families or friends who were affected. However, staff indicated decreased confidence to mention counseling services to students. Also, during the pandemic almost half of school staff indicated experiencing moderate to severe depression, and most staff indicated experiencing moderate to severe anxiety. These findings highlight the importance of providing mental health outside of the school setting, and the need for mental health services for school staff and students in the wake of the COVID-19 crisis.
