Students of Lakeland Regional High School will be having a Wellness Day on Friday, May 30, 2025. It will be a nice and easy day for students to relax and enjoy a break from the stresses of academia.
This is not the first year LRHS is hosting a Wellness Day for its students. Lakeland does this for their students because there are so many positives to offering a temporary relief of the hardships of the school year.
Wellness Day was made for students and staff to have a “break” of sorts during the school day for mental health and personal recovery. Mental health for students and teachers is important as the burden of a large workload can be wearing on the mind as the students and teachers are stressed.

According to NAMI, the stragicial placement of a wellness day is also important as it can disrupt the school week if placed on a Wednesday. It was a great idea for LRHS to schedule Wellness Dayon a Friday as students and staff are also given the weekend to recharge from the school week.
One of the many benefits for a Wellness Day is getting a break before the upcoming final exams. Once the Wellness Day is completed, the goal is that students at LRHS will feel a sense of refreshment and will be interested in working harder than before while preparing for finals. According to Psychology Today, a Wellness Day refreshes the brain, and it restores motivation for long term goals, it can restore our productivity and creativity, and it helps you work harder and more efficiently.
Lakeland’s Wellness Day and wellness in general is very important, so enjoy the break and any break that may come with it. Remember to always value your mental health as you are important.
