National School Counseling Week, sponsored by the American School Counselor Association (ASCA), will be celebrated from Feb. 1–5, 2016, to focus public attention on the unique contribution of professional school counselors within U.S. school systems and how students are different as a result of what school counselors do. National School Counseling Week highlights the tremendous impact school counselors can have in helping students achieve school success and plan for a career.

School counselors  are actively engaged in helping students examine their abilities, strengths, interests and talents; for working in a partnership with parents as they encounter the challenges of raising children in today’s world; for focusing on positive ways to enhance students’ social/personal, educational and career development; and working with teachers and other educators to provide an educational system where students can realize their potential and set healthy, realistic and optimistic aspirations for themselves. Professional school counselors are certified, experienced educators with at minimum a master’s degree in guidance and counseling. The combination of their training and experience makes them an integral part of the total educational program.

School counselors work with all students to help remove barriers to learning by addressing students’ academic concerns, personal/social skills and by promoting career awareness.  The Coffee County School’s mission is “Destination Graduation for College Career and Life.” School Counselors are beneficial in helping to increase student achievement and providing a much-needed resource for students, parents, teachers and administrators.

Coffee County School Counselors: Dr. Darcy Clark (Coffee Middle), Mr. Winston B. DeLoach (Indian Creek), Ms. Kawanna Edwards (Coffee High), Ms. Stephanie Gooden (Coffee Middle), Ms. Anna Harris (Ambrose/Broxton), Ms. Ginger Hughes (Coffee High), Dr. Fidelia Johnson (West Green), Ms. Jill Pruitt (Coffee Middle), Ms. Valeicia Sirmans (Satilla), Ms. Pamela Smith (Coffee County Career Academy), Ms. Lisa Spivey (Westside), Ms. Racheal Trott Ho (Coffee High), Ms. Sarah Warren (George Washington Freshman Campus), Ms. Heidi Welch (Eastside), and Ms. Jennifer Wilcox (Nicholls).
