GOODNESS GRACIOUS!!
We need a favor.
Our custodian, Maria, is really struggling. There seems to have been an uptick in students being directly rude and disrespectful to her. We will be talking about this on the announcements as well, but please help us by following up with your classes.
We don't want to lose her, and this past couple of weeks have been ROUGH in her world. If you have any other ideas or suggestions to help make sure she is treated well and thought of highly...please let us know

Counselor's Corner
I am overwhelmed with the outpouring of love and support that I have had from you over the past week with Counselor’s Week!! I am so blessed to work with the best staff on a daily basis! I also want to say thank you for all of the check-ins over the past few days. If you didn’t hear, I was hospitalized at the end of last week with contractions, but don’t worry the baby is fine and continuing to grow. We are hoping to keep this baby growing on the inside for a few more weeks! Thank you for adjusting to the doctor’s orders of me staying off my feet! Please know that if there is a crisis that needs my attention, I will come down to your rooms so please don’t hesitate to call. I sincerely appreciate your help and understanding at this time as this has been a HUGE adjustment for me!
