This week we are celebrating National School Counseling Week! The theme for week- "School Counselors Amplify Student Success" reminds of the work Mr. Durr and Ms. Newsome do each day to help create a school environment where all students can thrive.

Our school counselors are here for each and every student – not just
some. Through classroom lessons, group activities, and individual meetings, they help our students build skills for academics, relationships and life. Thank you, Ms. Newsome and Mr. Durr for all you do!
