Dear parents and students,
During this time of uncertainty, the PHS counselors would like you to know that we are available to provide whatever help and support that you may need. If you are dealing with emotional struggles or are having a hard time with your school work, please contact us and let us help! We will always have a counselor at the school from 8 am to 3 pm, and all of our counselors will be available as they work from home. You can contact us by phone and email, or if you prefer to meet face to face we can also meet over video conferencing.
We know that during this time you may be struggling with the lack of social interaction and with the disappointment of losing part of your high school experience. In addition to being here to support you, we want to encourage you to continue writing in your happiness advantage journals. If you can’t find yours, just grab a notebook and write down the following:
- 3 things you are grateful for
- one positive experience you had in the past 24 hours
- what you did for exercise
- what you did for meditation
- acts of kindness in the past 24 hours
- something you learned this week
- goals/to do’s
