The Baldwin-Whitehall School District and Allegheny Health Network
celebrated the official opening of the CHILL Project Mindfulness Center
at Baldwin High School on February 12th. Dr. William Davies, creator and
Program Supervisor, explains, “the Chill Project is a thoughtful, mindfulness-
informed, and comprehensive transformation of the school culture.” Since its
soft opening at the beginning of the school year, the center has welcomed
more than 5,000 encounters, helping students with diverse issues—including
anxiety, peer issues, and exam apprehension.
“We have committed to supporting students in their opportunity for
success in all areas of their lives: academically, emotionally, and socially,” said
Dr. Randal A. Lutz, Superintendent of Schools. “The CHILL Center represents a
significant stride in our mental-health services. Traditionally, school services
have been utilized only by students with identified challenges. We are only
beginning to realize the importance of making these services readily and
easily accessible to everyone in our school community.”
