Welcome to a new school year at Thompson Elementary!

We are excited to partner with our Tiger families as we begin our

Welcome to a new school year!

My name is Ms. Bethany, and I am excited to serve as your school's counselor. I look forward to partnering with you to support the academic, social, and emotional success of every student.

Throughout the year, I provide classroom guidance lessons on topics such as kindness, bullying prevention, friendship skills, emotional regulation, safety, career awareness, and responsible decision-making. I also offer individual counseling for students who may need additional support and can provide families with social-emotional learning (SEL) activities and resources to use at home. This month students will receive a guidance lesson on the Lucy Lockdown safety program to help them understand safety procedures and feel prepared and confident during emergency drills.

You may also use the link below to refer students for counseling services or call directly.

If you have any questions or would like to learn more about how I can support your child, please don't hesitate to reach out. I look forward to working with you and your family this school year!

Help us encourage our Thompson Tigers to do their best and R.I.S.E. every day! Remind students that their positive choices matter. By following CHAMPS expectations, being respectful, showing self-control, making a positive impact, and being ready to learn, students can help their class earn CHAMPS Compliments and become CHAMPS Champions!

Together, we can catch the positive, celebrate success, and encourage our Tigers to keep striving for excellence!

🐾 Respect • Impact • Self-Control • Excel

 Thompson Tigers R.I.S.E. Together!
