This week, we celebrate the heart of our schools—our incredible counselors who show up every day as true Champions for Children. They listen patiently, guide with wisdom, and lead with kindness, helping students believe in their potential even on days they can’t see it themselves.
From encouraging words in the hallway to life-changing conversations behind closed doors, our counselors remind us that success is about more than grades—it’s about confidence, compassion, and connection. Their work shapes futures, strengthens families, and builds a culture where every child feels seen, supported, and valued.
To our school counselors: thank you for the kindness you pour into our students, the hope you nurture in their hearts, and the difference you make in our community every single day. You are truly Champions for Children, and we are so grateful for you!
