Welcome to November! As the air turns crisp and the autumn leaves are on vibrant display, we enter a wonderful season focused on gratitude and togetherness. In our counseling lessons this month and continuing into December, we will be diving into the Second Step Bully Prevention Unit. Through this curriculum, students will learn how to recognize, report, and refuse bullying behavior, as well as how to practice empathy and support one another. As we celebrate the season of Thanksgiving, it is the perfect time to reinforce these lessons at home by discussing kindness, gratitude, and what it means to be a caring friend and community member.

Each year LISD coordinates a district wide angel tree to serve students and families in need within the LISD community. If you are interested in adopting an angel, please click the button below.

You can listen to the book on YouTube here..

Little Betsy will learn that happiness is made up of simple things in life, both small and big. With the help of the magic stone, she will begin to feel gratitude for her parents, friends, and toys. But what happens when little Betsy forgets to use the magic of her stone? She will realize that the power of gratitude is hidden in her heart.

"Gratitude is my superpower" will teach your little ones to appreciate the warmth of home, time spent playing with friends, and family relationships.

In Lewisville ISD, the whole child is at the core of everything we do as a district, including our students' mental, emotional and physical health. With counselors on every campus, LISD knows parents want their children to receive an outstanding education, but more importantly, they want their children to be nurtured and cared for beyond just academics.

The Lewisville ISD Counseling and Social Work Department is grateful to partner with you to support the social emotional needs of all LISD students. We believe education on these issues is key to helping our students become happy, successful people.

Please review these flyers describing different social issues our students may face. If you have any areas that we may assist you or your student, please contact your student’s school counselor.

We appreciate the opportunity to work with your students.
