National School Counseling Week 2020
What is your favorite quote and why?
“If you think my hands are full, you should see my heart.” This is my favorite quote because no matter how busy the day gets, my heart is always full of love and hope for all of my children. It is my heart that keeps driving me to want to be better for all of my students!
What are the most rewarding parts of your job?
Working with children everyday and seeing their smiling faces is what makes my job so rewarding. Being the counselor at an elementary school, I am able to build relationships with all of my students from 3-K to 5th grade and see their growth from the time they enter us as toddlers to the time they leave us as young adults. That to me is truly rewarding. It is the most crucial time in their life where relationships set the tone for all their future relationships.
