Guidance counselors: who is guiding who? | Little Miami and Lebanon Schools News and Issues
 
Bertram hired by Northwest

Lebanon City Schools Treasurer Randy Bertram has been hired for the same position in the Northwest Local School district. Bertram sent a letter to the school board and to the media detailing his situation. It reads: I eagerly anticipate starting my new position as the Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer for Northwest Local Schools on August 1, 2008. My family and I look forward to relocating to Cincinnati and becoming a part of the community. As long time resident’s of Waynesville, we feel connected to the area and we are pleased to be staying in southwest Ohio. As I leave Lebanon City School District I want to commend the Board, district staff and community for stepping up and helping this excellent school district overcome some of the most difficult financial times it has seen. I am proud to say that the district has been restored to financial stability and its’ integrity is once again strong and vibrant. With a slow economy and unsettled state funding, the community needs to understand that there are still challenges and needs that are upon the district. Continued work and commitment by the staff and community are of the utmost importance for Lebanon City School’s future. I wish all of you the very best and I will miss this wonderful community and staff. As the Treasurer for Northwest Local Schools I will work diligently with the Board of Education, district staff and the community to plan objectives and clearly reach goals while maintaining accurate and current financial data. I will strive for financial integrity for the district and community.

Guidance counselors: who is guiding who?

Well, if you watch ABC’s “Miss Guided,”, a new series about a woman who returns to her high school alma mater to work as a guidance counselor, you would say it is the students who provide their teachers and counselors with information. The show is a humorous representation of a guidance counselor’s interactions with students, but I am not sure how true to life it is. From my interactions with local guidance counselors, they seem to be ahead of the game and enthusiastic about providing their students with the help they are seeking. Miami University Middletown has recognized that and is honoring school counselors with a “red carpet” luncheon Friday, April 18 from 11 a.m. - 2 p.m. The luncheon will feature Exploring Teen - Adult Relationships by Nancy Ferguson, LISW, Coordinator of Counseling and Disability Services at MUM. For more information, call 727-3216 or e-mail mumadmission@muohio.edu. Is your guidance counselor helpful or is he/she more like “Miss Guided”?
