#WeAreInThisTogether! #LISDathome
Dear LHS Harmon students and parents,
The counselors at LHS Harmon want you to know how much we are thinking of you and your families during this tough time. We definitely want to support you and give you some ideas on how to positively cope with your feelings and navigate this new at-home learning. As we embark on this journey together, our number one priority is the well-being of our students and their families. Teachers will be in direct contact to check-in and see if you need assistance but mostly, they miss you and want to hear from you! Please let us know how we can be of any help and we look forward to hearing from you soon.
