A NOTE FROM Mr. Jamison
My name is Mr. Jonathan J. Jamison and I am the new school counselor at Pomaria-Garmany Elementary School. I am excited to be your child’s school counselor. The Counseling Program at PGES is designed to meet the needs of all students, parents, staff and stakeholders.
As we begin another school year, there is a new component to the PGE’s Counseling Program. It is an after school program called T. E. A. M. Tiger. The activities will focus on different aspects of life skills and character building. We will also take some time to do homework and even join the running club for exercise.
The program will be held after school from 2:45pm until 4:00pm. These students will need to be picked up from PGE at 4:00 p.m.
If you think your child could benefit from this after school program, please contact Mrs. Folk, Mrs. Graham or Mr. Jamison at 321-2651.
