The wissahickon school district is remarkeable
Serving three townships in the northern suburbs of philadelphia
Each year students head of to elite schools like stanford, princeton and cornell
Wissahickon serves as a model for other suburban schools
However, it is not problem free
Despite my pride & love in wissahickon highschool I worry about it
While attending, I noticed, that wissahickon is suffering from a problem that is hurting children & teenagers from all areas of our country
Students at wissahickon have problems with their mental health status
A member of wissahickons class of 2001 who was an honour student and a star on our girls track & field team committed suicide in her dorm room, during her freshman year
Depression is an isolating desease
19% of teenagers have admitted to suicidal thougts
8% have attempted suicide
It is the 3rd cause of death among teenagers following only car-accidents & homicide

Suicide solution, society contribution
Infinite downtime, incompatible design
Suicide kills 1600 teenagers each year, I was depressed
It can be dead-mental if depression becomes to much

Every year, we a weight, measured, checked for sculliosis and tested for tuberculosis
Tubercolosis has not killed anybody unter 25 in the past years
However, suicide kills 1600 teengers each year
Depression is a silent epidemic among teenagers
It is the 3rd cause of death among teenagers following only car-accidents & homicide
With numbers like these and with stories of graduates leaving only to committ suicide less than a year later, it can be dead-mental if depression becomes to much
