Counseling Program Update
The Brunswick School K-12 Counseling Program has developed a comprehensive plan to guide the services and curriculum provided by counselors in all schools. The full comprehensive plan can be found here.
As part of this plan, the BSD counselors are seeking feedback to inform program development. They are asking students, parents/guardians, and staff members to complete this short survey. The link to the survey can be found here. The survey will be open until Monday, 12/18/23.
Superintendent's Notebook: Outreach class gets students engaged in their communities
“You make a living by what you get; you make a life by what you give,” is often attributed to Winston Churchill. However, a search of over 2.5 million words by and about Churchill in the Churchill Centre’s research database fails to show that he ever spoke or wrote those words. Nonetheless, it’s at the heart of our Brunswick Junior High School’s community outreach class.
The community outreach class provides students a valuable opportunity to make a positive difference while developing critical life skills. Students practice empathy and understanding from diverse perspectives by engaging with real-world issues that impact their local community. These hands-on service projects within their community allow students to discover their own abilities to enact change, building confidence and resilience.
