Having surgery today and will be on medical leave for a few weeks. A 5th grader and I have a little contest…who can say Good Morning first in the car rider line. Another 5th grader decided to make a poster in my absence to make sure I’m first! ❤️@WheelerElem @CoachMeredith

Removing barriers for student success is all in a days work. So much happens behind the scenes to ensure equity for our kids. School counselors don’t stop until students have what they need! #NSCW24 @WheelerElem @CoachMeredith
