Mrs. Berry's Counseling Corner
August 2016
WELCOME BACK JES!
Secondly, I want to introduce myself. My name is Allison Berry, Mrs. Berry, and this is my first year as a school counselor with Scott County School District 2. I am very excited about sharing this year with everyone; students, families, and staff! I spend the first half of the school day at Lexington Elementary and finish the school day at Johnson Elementary.
A little more information about me, my background, my family, and my hopes for the school year can be found further in this newsletter.
So, who is the new counselor, Mrs. Berry?
Prior to my work with Scott County School District 2 I was employed for the previous almost nine years with the Department of Child Services.
My family still lives in NC, aside from my twin sister who lives in Louisville, KY with her family.
My husband and I have been married for 10 years as of August. We have one son, Easton, who will be two in October. We are expecting our second child, a daughter, in December. We live in a "mini farm" and have a dog, a cat, and three horses!
I am so very excited to be working at JES with the children, families, and staff. I hope that we all have a fabulous and productive year!
Expectations for the 2016-2017 School Year
It is my goal to offer collaboration with the staff and parents at JES, to provide classroom guidance/counseling lessons, and to provide solution-focused individual and group therapy sessions.
Please be on the lookout for permission slips for children to participate in some of the programming. Also, you may receive a call from me if the need for your child to see me is more urgent, do not be alarmed! It is important that the school maintain accurate contact information for the children's caregiver/legal guardian in case of an emergency or consent situation.
