Counselors will facilitate small groups with students focusing on a variety of topics to include stress management, anxiety, grief, decision making, planning for next steps, anger management, and self-esteem. Contact Mrs. Cheslock for more information and to particpate. dchesl1@neisd.net

• We are about halfway through T2. The end of the semester is approaching and don't let things sneak up on you! Keep a close eye on your attendance and be sure you are turning in all assignments.
• Remember, an N beside your grade under the semester column in skyward means YOU HAVE LOST CREDIT FOR THE COURSE. Pay close attention to Wednesday after school and Saturday School dates if you need to earn hours. See your administrator if you have questions.
• Exemption and semester exam information will be coming soon!

Choose to be optimistic. Being intentional about searching for the good in all situations can bring some peace when we are struggling. How can you focus on being positive in your circumstances?

• Be aware of your deadlines for college applications.
• Give advance notice for requesting counselor recommendations and transcript requests. Don't wait until the last minute!
• All items requested from the Counseling Office need to be requested BEFORE Thanksgiving break in order to make the Dec 1 deadline.

Counselors are meeting individually with Seniors to go over their transcript, credit checklist, senior information packet, and graduation contract.

Please review the Senior Night Presentation to stay informed with upcoming deadlines and important information.

6th Semester Rank is now available. You can view your transcript under your portfolio in skyward. To note- in NEISD, only students within the top 10% are ranked.

Working on college applications? See below for how to request a counselor recommendation letter and information needed for the recommendation letter.
