The Employee Assistance Program (EAP) provides free and confidential short-term counseling services to support the wellness of all Thomas County Schools' teachers and staff. This program is designed to help employees manage a range of personal and professional challenges, including stress, anxiety, family issues, and other concerns that may impact their well-being or job performance. 

Thomas County Schools and Archbold Memorial Hospital Partnership

Thomas County Schools has partnered with Archbold Memorial Hospital to provide a dedicated Employee Assistance Program for district employees. This long-standing partnership offers support services at no cost to any full-time TCS employee seeking assistance. To access this service:

  • Request a Referral: Employees can request a referral for support either through their building supervisor or directly by contacting Dr. Brecca Pope, Assistant Superintendent of Administrative Services. You can email Dr. Pope at bpope@tcjackets.net
  • Confidential and Secure: All referrals are strictly confidential between the employee and the medical provider. Records of counseling sessions are securely maintained by Archbold Memorial Hospital and are not shared with the school district. Employees can trust that their privacy is fully protected throughout the process.

This reflects Thomas County Schools' commitment to supporting its staff's mental health and well-being with a familiar and trusted local partner.  Your well-being is our priority, and this resource is here to support you.
