November Counselor Corner
Hoffmann Guidance & Counseling
Happy November Hoffmann Hawks!
We cannot believe how fast these past few months have flown by and now we are in November! Kids have been working so hard in their classrooms; it has been a joy to see them during our guidance time. We are officially in full swing with small group Counseling. If we were not able to service your kiddo in the fall, and you would like them in group counseling, we will always have Spring Counseling available. More info will come about spring groups at a later time. Please know we are here to support each kiddo, if you ever have a concern do not hesitate to reach out.
