School Counseling / SEL Programming
Week of April 6, 2020
Letter to Our Clayton Family
Our District Counselor Leaders are letting us know what we can offer regarding small groups and individual support as we provided during our regular school days. Until we hear from them we will continue to offer Live Family SEL with Miss Taylor. Miss Johnson and Miss Berry will be there too! For safety, we are asking families to sign up so we can send out the Zoom meeting code just to our Clayton families.
We are all available for telephone or video meetings with parents and/or students. You can schedule those via our emails by clicking on our names: Mrs. Berry, Mrs. Johnson Miss Taylor. You can also schedule a 30-minute appointment directly with Miss Berry by following this link.
