Welcome to the 2010-2011 school year!

Hi TPS families!

Welcome to the 2010-2011 school year. We are thrilled to see your children fill our halls again and hope that y'all are looking forward to a great time here at TPS. I hope you've had a wonderful summer.

This year, I will again be posting information about our school counseling program as well as parenting ideas and other tidbits about children's development here on my blog. I recommend bookmarking the blog with the other websites that you check frequently (weather, sports scoreboard, etc.) so that you can just click on it every week or so to see what is new. I also send every blog update to my Parent Email List, so you can receive the news in your email inbox and do not have to remember to check the blog. If you would like to be part of my Parent Email List, please send me an email, write me a note, or return the form that I will send home with every child in the next week or so.

If you do not have email access, I am happy to send the blog updates home on paper in your child's backpack. I title the pages "Backpack Mail from the TPS School Counselor." I will send them every two weeks or so, whenever I have enough to fill up the front and back of one piece of paper. If you'd like to receive the blog updates on paper, please write me a note, call me, or return the form that I will send home with every child in the next week or so.

Thanks very much! I'm excited to use this blog as a parent communication tool again this year and look forward to being in touch with you!
