Thank you so much for the wonderful flowers and cards in celebration of Counselor Week. You made me feel very special this week.
In appreciation of your kindness, take a minute of your day on Monday to enjoy some yummy cookies from the Counselor Cabana. The cookies will be placed at the Teacher's lounge in the morning.
