6th Grade Counseling News
Rippon Middle School
Ms Rapcavage and Ms. Canada
This year we welcomed Tara Canada to the counseling department. She will be here on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. If there is a holiday on a Monday, Tara will be here on Tuesdays. She is here to assist with all grade levels. I'm sure that we will have no trouble keeping her busy!
Meet the Counselors September 18-22
Now that scheduling has calmed down somewhat, we will be visiting all of the Social Studies classes to introduce ourselves to the students. If you haven't contacted Tara to schedule your time, please do so ASAP :)
Minute Meetings
Last year I conducted Minute Meeting with each sixth grader. It was a great way to get a snapshot of how students were doing. I focused on school connectedness and shared the results with each team. I'd like to continue this year. If you have a question you would like to collect data on for your team, please let me know and I will include it in the survey.
