Hafa Adai & Welcome Parents/Guardians,

 

My name is Lynnette Quitugua and I am the School Guidance Counselor.  The counseling program at LBJ Elementary School is comprised of many components designed to help your child have an enjoyable and successful school year.  As your school counselor, I work with parents and students in many ways providing a variety of services.  Each service is aimed at helping children learn and develop emotionally, socially, and academically.

 

Every Monday LBJ students assemble in K-Square for our Character Education Word of the Month (WOM).  The "Words of the Month" are: Respect, Cooperation, Citizenship, Caring, Gratitude, Self-Control, Fairness, Honesty, Trustworthiness, and Responsiblity.  During the day students will be taught the definition of the WOM and examples of how they can apply these character values at school and at home.  In addition to "WOM" lessons, students will have monthly character projects.  Please check your child's folder daily for the month's project.

 

 

 

Rainbows is a peer support group for students who are experiencing a significant loss in their lives (death, divorce, separation, single parent homes, deployment of a family member). 

 

The rainbows curricula is designed to provide support and healing in an accepting environment supported by trained, caring, and compassionate facilitators.  The program consists of 12 sessions; facilitators use workbooks, story books, and games to help students verbalize  their feelings. 

 

If you are interested in the program, please ask your child's teacher for a registration form.
