August 2009:  Welcome back to Mercy!  I am so happy that we will be seeing you again very soon.  Some of my first projects as counselor this year will be to welcome all the new students and to have a chance to chat with you and get to know you a little. 

We will be talking with the 6th graders during the first week of school about the transition to middle school.  There are lots of things we can do and you can do to smooth the transition.  Looking forward to working with you!
