School environments significantly influence student mental health, affecting their academic performance and social interactions. Supportive environments with positive teacher-student relationships and a sense of belonging foster emotional well-being, while high-stress environments can lead to anxiety and depression. Adequate resources, like counseling services and safe spaces, are essential for addressing students’ mental health needs. Furthermore, a focus on inclusive policies can help create a nurturing environment where all students feel valued, thus promoting better mental and emotional health.
