Counselor’s Corner
Where did this year go? I cannot believe it is already
May and the summer break is right around the
corner. This month, classroom guidance lessons will
include teamwork, summer safety skills, and
preparing for transitioning to a new grade level. As
summer approaches, it is important to remember
some important safety rules. Attached are some
summer safety ideas that you could share with your
students.
