[Counselors] Counselor Office

Fri Mar 6 09:49:49 CST 2015

I think it is best to be away from the Administration offices.  We were
moved to the administration offices for one school year during construction
and we saw a marked decrease in the number of students walking in to
utilize our services.  We believe that they weren't as comfortable coming
in to the main office.  I would encourage you to be in that hallway office
closer to students!  That would be my choice.
