Back In Her Day: Unlike high schoolers today, Mrs. Donna Kronaizl could not communicate with someone at the drop of a hat. “We didn’t have cell phones with unlimited minutes for use,” Mrs. Kronaizl said. “If we wanted to call someone out of town we had to call long distance and that cost extra money.” (submitted photo)

New Age: Teens nowadays remember getting their first phone either in late elementary school or early middle school; that is not what it was like in the past, however. “I don’t remember getting a phone until the end of high school and it was just to text, Mr. Brandon Shostak said. “It was very fact, fact, fact rather than the age of emojis.” (submitted photo)

Gen Z: Watching Tik Tok or scrolling through Instagram, such as Avery Swanson (23) and Mia Bowling (23), teens nowadays do tasks through their phone. “I do think that technology has made kids lazier,” Dawson Gulizia (22) said. “They can do many things off their phones and not have to get off the couch.” (photo by Ansley Gydesen)

Preventing Cheating: Teachers use LockDown Browser for tests to prevent students from cheating on their tests and quizzes. “I feel like it’s a good way for teachers to know that kids aren’t able to cheat,” junior Makayla Haake said.

THE DIFFERENCE “The best part about my day is that two days are never the same,” school psychologist Ms. Stephanie Hengen said. “A major part of my job is testing students to see if they qualify for special education services (Individual Education Plans) and the paperwork and meetings that go along with that.

I also do a lot of consulting with teachers, admin, parents, counselors and students to address academic, social, emotional and behavioral needs. I am trained to work with students one on one or in small groups and try to do that when time allows.”

“Our door is open to serve students as they walk in,” school counselor Dr. Melissa Hansen said. Students who are in tears, who have academic questions, applications for college, it’s a variety of things. We have some things that we do like drop-add, we teach lessons in health classes and in junior classes for college planning. Sophomore year we do a career unit for a week. We also help sponsor the college fair, we do parent presentations in the evening for 8th grade parent night. We administer the ACT, its kind of a jack-of-alltrades.”

Why do you think there is a difference in the way older and younger generations handle mental illness?

“I think that people are more open to speaking about mental health and seeking support and treatment because there is less stigma around (it),” Ms. Hengen said. “In the past, mental health issues were much more taboo. I enjoy hearing conversations about people seeking therapy and sharing their therapists recommendations with others.

“Older generations it was kind of taboo to say that you were depressed or that you had anxiety that you were in emotional distress,” Dr. Hansen said. “The thought was that you just suck it up and go on about your business.

There is the bridge gap that is kind of like the millennials who broke that down a little bit more and now we have started to recognize mental health issues.”

3'4%" Disconnect: Society is conforming to technology and posting about

their lives instead of having conversations. “Social media is just fake,” Savannah DeFini (22) said. “They post their best pictures and moments and you never get to see them crying or stressed out because of a test or ugly after a soccer practice or what goes on in their real life.” (photo by Gretchen Graham Baijnauth)

“I think technology has stifled communication skills where kids today would rather be texting each other as opposed to actually walking up to somebody and making eye contact with them and having a conversation.”

Solution Ansley Gydesen Jake Detten

Ansley wrote about technology today and how it is helpful and hurtful.

Many kids have technology in their back pocket. Phones help people connect and see what is going on around the world. The downfall to that is people start comparing themselves to the people on the internet. Phones are a good and bad thing.

Solution: People should stay connected via phones but should also stay connected to the world around them.

Social Suicide breaks down social media usage. Social media connects people around the world but also disconnects people in real life.

Sometimes, social media influences people to compare themselves to others. Social media users need to realize that not everything you see on social media is real.

Solution: Spend more time with family and friends and take a break from social media every now and then.

Yes, We Have a School Psychologist talks about GHS’s psychologist that not many students know about. Ms. Hengen has been working at the school for two years. She helps identify students behaviors and gives them a safe space to talk. She gives teachers resources if they feel like one of their students is struggling. If someone is struggling with school, mental health, or home issues Ms. Hengen is a great resource to talk to.

Solution: Read this page and learn about a resource to talk to if you or someone you know is struggling.
