2024-2025 District Calendar
Our 6th graders have been working hard the past few weeks sharpening their writing skills in Mrs. Simpson's ELA class. They participated in a mock trial to introduce argumentative writing by collecting evidence to support their claims and refute counterclaims and then making inferences to form theories. Then, each student chose an influential person of color who has impacted them personally or society as a whole and composed essays on 6 specific areas of that persons life. We are all blown away by their creativity and eagerness to apply the skills they’ve learned in ELA this year. Way to go Mrs. Simpson and way to go 6th grade students!

National School Counseling Week, sponsored by the American School Counselor Association, is celebrated February 5-9, 2024, to focus public attention on the unique contribution of school counselors within United States school systems and how students benefit as a result of school counselors. National School Counseling Week highlights school counselors' tremendous impact in helping students achieve school success and plan for a career.

School counselors are certified, experienced educators with a master’s degree in school counseling. The combination of their training and experience makes them an integral part of the total educational program.
