First Quarter School Counseling Update
Each year, our secondary school counselors provide our students with a variety of lessons to assist them in achieving their goals, pursuing their interests, and managing their lifelong learning. These lessons range in topics from career education to academic to personal to social/emotional growth. Linked here is the full list of lessons and an overview for each of the lessons (by grade level). This informational resource was designed to provide our families with opportunities to further review the planned learning activities.
As we move into the first quarter of the school year, our 7-12 school counselors will focus on the following lessons. We look forward to sharing these learning experiences with your students. We will provide quarterly updates throughout the school year.
