Shout out to our amazing school counselors Earlier this month, we celebrated National School Counseling Week. We want to give a big shoutout to our incredible school counselors: Mrs. Burnworth, Mrs. Tolliver, Mrs. Celizic, and Ms. Proctor (Syrowski). Last week, members of the Ottawa Hills Schools Parent Association heard from the counseling staff at their monthly meeting, where counselors explained their role in the district and how they support individuals, small groups, classrooms, and families. Thank you to our counseling team for your dedication to our district! |
