It's School Psychology Awareness Week!!  Mrs. Girard, our school psychologist is one BUSY lady!  Some of her jobs include working directly with students, testing students, as well as providing support to teachers and other school staff.  She does all of this and much, much more all while juggling 4 different schools in 5 days with a smile on her face.  If you'd like to learn more about when a school psychologist does just stop Mrs. Girard in the hallway sometime and ask her.  Also, please tell her THANK YOU for all the support she provides to our school the next time you see her!
