Starting Student Support Groups Soon!

Mrs. Lenzen and I have been going into classroom for counseling lessons since the second week of school.  During our second visit we gave the kids an informal survey.  The purpose of the survey was to gain information to best support each child during this school year due to a major life change.  Students let us know if they would prefer to visit with us at recess individually one time or if they would like to participate in a group setting during recess due to the major life change.  We will be sending home permission slips for groups within the week so we can begin.  Please call Mrs. Lenzen or myself if you have questions.
