Counseling Corner
Counselors Coaching Perseverance
Our school counselors have been working with students on building the character trait- perseverance. It is such a vital skill that translates to success in school, in work, in sports, and in everyday life! Our students are supported and encouraged to take risks, 'fail forward', and embrace a growth mindset. Please see article below about how you can practice perseverance as a family.
