PROSPER ISD HAYS MIDDLE SCHOOL

I have been a middle school counselor in Prosper for 9 years. This will be year 10 for me, and I have the privilege of being one of the lucky ones that is opening Hays Middle School. One of my goals this school year is to start up an after school program that will allow students who are struggling academically to have a place on our campus where they can go at least two days a week at the end of the school day. As a counselor I have seen a great need in our schools, for a place students can have access to technology, academic support and an accountability system. I am in the process of seeking out individuals who would be interested in working with middle school students, in an after school setting. This would be the first time that our middle schools have put a program like this in place. My hope and desire is to have a place available after school where students can be encouraged, motivated and see academic achievement in their lives.
