Day 5 of #NSCW25

Thank you ASCA for sending a box full of copies! What a nice surprise to have waiting in the main office on the first day back from spring break! #SCOY25

I come with empathy, compassion, and imposter syndrome 🤣💕!

Mentor/Mentee EOY celebration! Looking for a way to enhance your school counselor leadership, advocacy, and collaboration? Become a Mentor OR Mentee! As a Mentor, I learn a lot of new ideas from MENTEES — new counselors and veteran school counselors new to our district!

Kicked off Mental Health Awareness Month with the BEST PD! Great reminders about how we ALL have mental health, removing access barriers for students, and avoiding burnout.

Come SHINE with us while we illuminate best practices in School Counseling. We’ll also be hosting a National Model Work Session! See you soon! ☀️

The Dream Team! As a co-counselor said: “We’re not just counselors—we’re Negotiators. We work with students, families, teachers, coaches, and admin to navigate challenges and push our students toward the stage. And this year, we did it — together. Congrats to the Class of 2025!

Giving and receiving PD last week NC School Counselors’s Summer Academy NCCU School of Ed I got to speak about shining a light on ALL students, using EOY data to plan BOY goals and assist others with their national model plans in a work session. #leadership #advocacy #collaboration

BE OUR GUEST! We’re just a group of counselors with big hearts and a little secret sauce. ❤️🥘 Come hear our stories—Saturday @ 3:45 | Room 204 #ASCA25 #SCOY25 #SecretSauce #AgentsofChange

RAMP® starts with teamwork. 💥 Counselors + district leaders = a path to real impact. Learn how to collaborate, advocate for support, and use data to drive student success — even with limited resources. Get on track to RAMP® and see what’s possible. 🧭🏝️ #asca25 #rampready

Congratulations to Carnage Magnet Middle School and the other 17 Wake Sch. Counselors schools that earned ASCA RAMP recognition this year! Way to go! 🎉

Hard to choose just a few pics to highlight #ASCA25, Long Beach. Presented. Connected. Learned. Felt the continued support and recognition as a ASCA Top 5 #SCOY25 finalist aka “Saucy Sauce Queen!” School counseling & our programs matter! The sauce really isn’t a secret ❤️
