Welcome to my webpage.

2010-2011 is beginning! The faculty and staff are excited about the start of a new year and the opportunities available to each and every one of you through education. We hope each of you take advantage of all the opportunities presented to you and create them, with our help, if you do not find exactly what you are looking for this year. We plan on helping you prepare for either the 8th grade or your transition to High School in the 2011-2012 school year - it will be here before you know it.

If you are an 8th grade student, it is time to get focused as some of your classes could count toward your High School GPA. 7th grade students, you can now participate in all extracurricular activities in Middle School - just remember to keep your education your focus - it will pay off! Your Middle School Years will be years of transition and growth. They will be very social and you will leave looking nothing like what you looked like when you started. Make the most of every opportunity and remember to "Do the Right Thing!"

Also remember I have an open door policy - you do not need an appointment to see me - just make sure your teacher knows where you are. If you come in to talk to me and I am not here, please fill out one of the lime green slips that can be found on my table in the outer office. I will find you when I return and call you back.

Thank you and I look forward to a great year with each and every one of you!

Ms. McIntosh,

Your School Counselor
