ACCHS Students Celebrate National School Counselors' Week with Governor Parkinson

Karen Benson, Prescious dela Crus, Alex Maxwell, Governor Parkinson, Jordon Scherer, Steven Rathert and Lori Mitchell-Kandt.
We spoke to Governor Parkinson about the importance of counseling in the schools. He talked of the importance of college and career counseling and we pointed out other aspects of the profession. When he commented about the lack of funding for our schools we were able to give personal examples of the effect it is having for us. (Submitted by Mrs. Benson)
