@JonBoeckenstedt As a former Kindergarten teacher, I cried along with her. Almost 35 years ago, in my first week as a high school counselor in a regional Catholic HS, I happened upon 3 of my kindergarteners from my 1st year teaching. They looked the same...just taller. It was very cool 🥰

One of Sydney McLoughlin's biggest fans, her principal, Sr. Percylee, was my principal 50 years ago. Just saw her this weekend at our reunion. What a spunky lady!

There's a thread about "guidance counselors" not having the right expertise for school administration. Perhaps that's correct. Professional School Counselors would make great school administrators. There is a difference.
