National School Counseling Week

National School Counseling Week 2024 (Feb. 5-9) highlights the essential contribution of school counselors within U.S. school systems and the tremendous impact they have in helping students. School counselors help students in more ways than you may know.  Every student deserves a school counselor to help with academic achievement strategies, managing emotions and applying interpersonal skills, and planning for postsecondary options. 

Take a moment to thank your school counselors!

An additional way to recognize your school counselor is to consider nominating him or her for an award through the South Dakota School Counselor Association (SDSCA). The SD School Counselor Association page has more information on their awards.
