Today we’re celebrating Ms. Haas, whose care, connection, and compassion make a difference every day.
When asked what she’s learned as a school counselor, Ms. Haas shared a moment that has stayed with her throughout her career: *“One thing I’ve learned as a school counselor is how much it matters to students when you know their name. With so many students over the years, my brain doesn’t always keep up, but I try my best! During one of my first years as a school counselor, a 7th grade boy was shocked when I said hi to him and knew his name. I later found out he told his mom that night, ‘Mom, the school counselor knew my name today and said hi to me!’ That moment has always stayed with me and reminds me how important it is for students to know they are seen—and that they matter.”*
Thank you, Ms. Haas, for reminding us that even the smallest gestures leave a lasting impact. Your dedication helps our students feel valued, supported, and truly seen.

Zoology students are comparing the 4 living sub-phylums of arthropod by constructing Marthropods— marshmallow arthropods. The students reviewed the numbers of tagmata, legs, and antennae. Using marshmallows, toothpicks, and piper cleaners, they made an insect, crustacean, arachnid, centipede, and millipede! Cute and sticky!
