Mrs. Spicer and Ms. Winsor are starting some peer counseling groups and would love for you to join! There are 5 different groups available and they will be done virtually on Wednesdays so both F2F and MVP students can participate. This is a great way to get to know others and share your experiences and progress with the different issues listed, so we can all support each other. Sign up via this link: https://forms.gle/y38wG5YUviU2toyGA , by going to the MS Counseling Google Classroom, or coming to the office and filling out the good old-fashioned paper slip and dropping it in the BRIGHT PINK box :) This has been a tough year on all of us for a variety of reasons so you are not alone - if you have questions stop by the counseling office or email Mrs. Spicer or Ms. Winsor.
If you are interested in joining the MS Science Olympiad team please ask Mr Wertz for details today. Practices begin next week.
