2000-2001年制定了一项由学校护士为10-12岁儿童设计的心理健康教育方案，并在2004-2005年扩大了范围。6堂课，每堂课45分钟，提供信息和活动，以提高儿童对心理健康和疾病的认识。教育项目的内容包括大脑与心理健康的联系、管理压力的健康方法、促进心理健康的资源和活动、儿童常见的心理健康问题，以及如何寻求心理健康问题的帮助。课程包括教学演讲和公开讨论的结合，鼓励学生提出问题，并允许学校护士纠正错误信息。对370名中小学生的前后测试分析显示，他们在心理健康和心理疾病方面的知识有统计学上的显著改善。
A mental health education program designed by school nurses for children ages 10–12 was developed in 2000–2001 and expanded with broader distribution in 2004–2005. Six classroom sessions, each 45 minutes in length, provided information and activities to increase children's awareness of mental health and illness. Education program content included facts about the brain's connection to mental health, information about healthy ways to manage stress, resources and activities to promote mental health, common mental health problems experienced by children, and how to seek help for mental health problems. Classes included a combination of didactic presentation and open discussion, encouraging students to ask questions and allowing the school nurse to correct misinformation. Analysis of pre- and posttests from 370 elementary and middle school students revealed statistically significant improvements in their knowledge of mental health and mental illness.
