Today was a great day! Mrs. Skidmore was able to visit the Kinder classrooms and teach them what a School Counselor does! Showing them how I help build them up, support them, listen, lend a helping hand, I’m a safe person to talk to when they have big feelings, and help them problem solve and know it’s ok to make mistakes. We laughed and giggled a lot! Enjoy some of the cute pictures from today!
