Two questionnaires were used : one was composed of items about mental health resources, school policy and practice, school climate and community referral, and the other was on management of follow-up conditions for high risk students. Results:First, teachers’ awareness regarding school mental health resources, school policy and practice, school climate, and community referral showed positive change. That is, the 2013 students’ mental health school-community cooperative model works for improving teachers’ interest, awareness and effort regarding mental health.
