COUNSELOR NEWS
Please speak to your student about how important it is to be kind to one another. Sadly, we are seeing an uptick in negative interactions amongst the students. In the words of the famous Disney character, Thumper, "If you don't have anything nice to say then don't say anything at all." The world might be a better place if we could all live by that one! In so many ways, it is really that simple. Please encourage your students to let me know if they need me and also to always be kind.
Feel free to reach out amy.bush@bullitt.kyschools.us . Thank you for your support and help!
