G-Force is a group of UNT students that will be on the main campus, Room A105, on Wednesdays between 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM. While priority is given to upper classmen, if your student is interested in gathering some information regarding post-graduate plans, they can scan the QR code on the below flyer and enter their information to be called down (posters are also located throughout the school). G-Force students do not recruit for UNT, but rather help students with their individual needs and interests.
Red Ribbon Week national campaign is October 23rd - 31st.
It is the vision of the LISD Counseling Services department to work in collaboration with students, staff, parents and community to continue educational partnerships and community conversations to promote awareness and understanding of substance abuse and mental health and remove stigmas related to the situations our students face.
