Thank you for finding ways to reach all of your students – from those that need more gentle nudges and support to those that require one-on-one mentoring. You work to creatively remove barriers to learning and engaging with peers, and always lead with putting students first. You know how to support our students, and you work tirelessly to get them what they need. Whether it be a listening ear, a place to calm down, or a trusted presence nearby, you have a way of meeting students’ needs – oftentimes even before they realize they are in need of support. Thank you for the comfortable space you provide. At the secondary level, you layer in thoughtful resources with opportunities for exploration to ensure students forge their best path forward. At the elementary level, you make sure students have the social and emotional skills they need to be successful both now and in the future. Thank you for helping all students plan for their futures. You are a bridge between students and families and local community organizations that provide support for food, housing, mental health needs, and so much more. Thank you for reaching beyond the school walls to support families. Your thoughtful encouragement and consistent presence helps students to feel seen and supported. Thank you for being a main source of continuity for students amidst changes and challenges both inside and outside of school. As we celebrate counselors, we wanted to pause and take a few moments to share our gratitude with school counselors for all they do. School counselors and career advisors play so many vital roles within a school community and for individual students and families. Each year we celebrate National School Counseling Week during the first full week of February to honor the incredible and meaningful work all school counselors do each and every day.
