National School Counseling Week (February 2–6) is a special time to recognize and celebrate the incredible impact our school counselors have on students, families, and school communities every single day. This week highlights the essential role counselors play in supporting students’ academic success, social-emotional well-being, and future planning.

Our counselors do so much more than many people realize—listening, guiding, advocating, and helping students navigate challenges while discovering their strengths and possibilities. We are deeply grateful for their compassion, expertise, and unwavering commitment to helping every student thrive. This week, and always, we celebrate and thank our school counselors for the difference they make.💜
