Nautilus Counseling Corner
Monthly Update from Mrs. Carlton
May 2023
As we get ready to close on the 22-23 school year, we are also wrapping up Toolbox for the year as well! This month, we are finishing up Toolbox with our "Courage" tool. "I have the courage to do the right thing." Whether it is choosing to do the right thing, choosing to do the right thing when someone is doing something wrong, or standing up for something that is right, we can show courage or bravery each and every day we chose to do the right thing.
This year has truly been a gift to serve Nautilus and our wonderful students and families. I am looking forward to next school year and all the wonderful learning and growing that will take place. Have a relaxing and safe summer break Dolphins!
