Higbee 3rd Saturday

With the high stress levels that can be commonplace in schools, it was worthy to break down the more common types of stress and how they evolve. Even more noteworthy were the discussions and recommendations for avoiding burnout and relieving stress in the workplace. Also, I appreciated the time spent allowing the respective counselors to enlighten us as to what they do and how their roles in the schools have evolved in recent years. A lot of what they explained today cleared up some of the questions regarding the guidance counselors (yes I called them guidance counselors) that work in our building. I also like the idea of having a mental health specialist in the building for both students and staff.
