By now most of us are aware that we need to protect our skin from the sun. However, while sunscreen is commonly seen by the pool or at the beach, recent data shows that most American adults do not use it regularly throughout the year, if at all. The confusion is real. Which sunscreen is best? Which sunscreen does not irritate my skin or cause me to break out? Should I use a water-resistant sunscreen, a physical blocker or a chemical blocker? How often should I apply and reapply? Do I needed it if I am indoors all day? Do I need SPF 15 or SPF 100?

The shooting on May 8 at STEM School Highlands Ranch that killed one student and injured eight others has some parents and students feeling anxious, upset and outraged – which are all normal feelings to have after a tragedy.

It's important for parents/guardians/family members and students to be aware of their feelings and take care of their mental health after an event like this hits close to home.
