Twentieth Annual Guidance Counselor Recognition Day

Jun 30, 2006 12:50 PM

The Twentieth Annual Guidance Counselor Recognition Day Ceremony took place at Tweed Courthouse on Tuesday, May 23rd.  Each region selected one counselor from each level, elementary, junior high and high school to be honored.  Counselors from District 75 and Alternatives High Schools were also selected for the award.  Representatives from the Department of Education at Tweed as well as Regional staff were there to address the honorees and their guests.  Many principals and supervisors were there to support their counselors.  I was very pleased to be part of the ceremony and share in supporting these counselors.
