Mulberry Advisory Council (K-5)
The Mulberry School Counselors are looking for volunteers to participate in our Advisory Council! Advisory councils, recommended by the American School Counselor Association, help school counseling programs analyze and document the answer to the question, “How are students different because of what school counselors do?” The council will examine services in three key domains of academic, personal/social, and college and career exploration and will review data related to the comprehensive developmental school counseling program at Mulberry Elementary School. The council will meet twice per year. Please reach out to Katie Fields at katie.fields@gcpsk12.org if you’re interested in participating!
