This week is National School Counseling Week. Our counselors work with all students to remove barriers to learning by helping students apply academic achievement strategies, manage emotions, build interpersonal skills, support mental health needs, and plan for post-secondary options. No counselor’s job is the same because they adapt so well to what is needed from our students and schools as a whole. Thank you, counselors, for all you do in Rochester Public Schools!
Open Gym for secondary students on Saturday, February 3, will be at Sunset Terrace Elementary (1707 19th Ave NW). Middle School students are welcome from 2-3:15 p.m.. High School students are welcome from 3:15-4:30 p.m. The Longfellow gym will not be open this Saturday.
