Soaring into Summer
The counseling department would like to express our gratitude to our Voss Community. This year has been nothing short of challenges, but our Voss Community has shown resilience, flexibility, patience, and strength throughout this unusual school year. We are so proud to be a part of this community and look forward to another great year. We know we are all ready to 'soar' into summer, and we hope you all have a relaxing and wonderful time with your family and friends.
Guidance Skill Focus-Social Awareness
Throughout this last 9 weeks, our social and emotional skill focus has been Social Awareness. Our students will learn that to be socially aware, one will have the capacity to interact with others in ways that show respect, tolerance, and cooperation. We will be visiting classrooms in the coming weeks to teach our guidance lessons over this important skill.
