March Newsletter

From the Social Work and Counseling Team

Welcome Back!

We hope you had a wonderful and restful spring break! Since the end of March is right around the corner, this time can be hard for students and staff with testing and end of the year events coming up. It's a time of transition so remember to breathe and take one thing at a time! Stop by the counseling or social work offices if you'd like to talk.

- Ms. Cardone, Ms. McCarthy, Ms. Soto, Ms. Henry, and Mr. Tate 😎

Women's History Month

Throughout Women’s History Month, we celebrate the contributions of strong women from the past and present. While it’s important to celebrate women all year long, Congress sets aside one month each year to recognize the sacrifices made by women, for women, to help make our country — and world, rather — a fairer, safer place for all.
