National School Counseling Week is celebrated each February to focus public attention on the unique contribution of professional school counselors within U.S. school systems. National School Counseling Week, February 7-11, 2022, highlights the tremendous impact school counselors can have and this special week honors school counselors for the important role they play in helping students examine their talents, strengths, abilities, and interests.
As all educators focus their efforts on improving academic achievement for all students, it is important that we recognize school counselors for their continuing efforts in reducing barriers to learning and in providing the support necessary for all students to achieve at the highest level.
We would like to thank our Middle School Counselor, Ms. Brown and her interns working with her this year, Ms. Cochran and Ms. Martin, for all they do for our middle school.

This year, in addition to their writing, the seventh grade have been taking on some extra challenges. During their brain breaks, they have been trying new things such as drawing, cursive, juggling and sign language. Many of the 7th graders have become proficient at juggling scarves and balls. Some have also made their own juggling balls from rice and balloons to practice at home. Also students used their signing skills to perform the Pledge of Allegiance.
It was amazing to see the excitement and Cougar Pride in the gym today as we sent off our Dance team to State. Good Luck, Team!
