I am sure you have all heard this quote. I don't know who originally penned this but I am borrowing it for my theme this year! As I am embark on my 12th year here at WHES, I am reminded, daily, how blessed I am to be serving as the school counselor in this wonderful community. To the number of school supplies donated...Hope Community Church provided 26 FULL backpacks (and we have had many other organizations, such as the Ruritan Club's Auxiliary group and the Hanover Youth Services Council), the amazing PTA, who gave the staff bath bombs during work week and the NEW PLAYGROUND, our new fantastic principal, Mrs. Thompson and to the kids whose hugs I have eaten up all day long today because I have missed them. Our school wide theme this year is "The Power of One". We all have the power to change other's lives, just by being that one who sets an example, embraces failure, inspires others, supports other and chooses kind. I can't wait to see how our kids grow this year in all of these aspects. Because, after all, today, and every day, is a great day to have a great day!
