😃 It’s Thoughtful Thursday and it’s time to thank parents/caregivers! When was the last time you thanked a parent/caregiver for signing up their child for counseling? Parents/caregivers entrust you to help their child learn and grow. It’s not easy seeking help, and let’s be honest; mental health services are 100% voluntary in the school setting!
Don’t under appreciate the opportunities you get to support exceptional children daily. Call, text and/or email at least 1️⃣ parent today to thank them for their partnership.
Last Thursday, I started with just 5 calls and they immediately deepened my relationship with each parent. You can make these calls for both your highest performing and struggling learners. The purpose of the call is simply to thank parents/caregivers for taking a chance on your services ❤️
