The proclamation, as read by Councilman Daniel Babin: “Whereas, school counselors are employed in public and private schools to help students reach their full potential; and whereas, school counselors are actively committed to helping students explore their abilities, strengths, interests, and talents as these traits relate to career awareness and development; and whereas, school counselors help parents focus on ways to further the educational, personal, and social growth of their children;
“And whereas, school counselors work with teachers and other educators to help students explore their potential and set realistic goals for themselves; and whereas, school counselors seek to identify and utilize community resources that can enhance and complement comprehensive school counseling programs and help students become productive members of society; and whereas, comprehensive developmental school counseling programs are considered an integral part of the educational process that enables all students to achieve success in school.
“Now, therefore be it resolved, by the Terrebonne Parish Council, on behalf of the Parish President and the entire Terrebonne Parish Consolidated Government, that the week of February 5-9, 2024 be hereby proclaimed as National School Counseling Week, and that all school counselors be recognized for their efforts toward helping students grow and achieve their potential.”
