Thursday MM - Day "E"

Good Morning!

Please recognize Jenny Niles-Orefice during National School Counseling Week (NSCW). NSCW is sponsored by the American School Counselor Association.  This year’s theme "School Counseling: Building Magical Futures,"  will be celebrated from Feb. 3-7, 2014 to focus public attention on the unique contribution of professional school counselors within U.S. school systems.  This contribution is critical to the overall goals of our school and district.  Much of this month, middle and high school counselors will be actively engaged in helping students and parents make important decisions about high school and middle school registration.  Also, during this month elementary counselors will be engaged in a unique training opportunity to increase awareness and understanding of mental health issues.  This topic is particularly important as we seek to impart developmentally appropriate skills to all students.

 

Our entire community is very fortunate to have such a dedicated group who work tirelessly on behalf of students, schools and families.  I hope that you and your students will take the opportunity to acknowledge these efforts.  Thanks.

CLINARD GRANT deadline to apply is February 15th.
