STVM Counseling Services Active & Available
Earlier this week, I participated in a webinar titled "COVID-19 Strategies with Schools Around the World." The panel consisted of administrators from around the world - China, Italy, Singapore and the US. It was helpful for me to hear that all of these schools, regardless of geography, are facing similar successes and challenges through this digital learning transition. Something that has been weighing heavily on me during this time, is how to support the emotional well being of our students. Educators around the world are feeling the same way. We are extremely fortunate at STVM to have an active counseling staff and dedicated teaching faculty who have been reaching out to and connecting with our student body since day one of the transition. I encourage you to reach out to a member of the
Counseling Department
with any questions or concerns you may have regarding your student’s emotional health.

Friday, April 3 - No New Material or Live Lessons
Friday, April 3 was originally a scheduled day off from school. Students will not be presented with new material or live lessons on Friday. We will use the day as a day to allow students to catch up with any outstanding assignments. Each department will hold office hours for students to log on and touch base with teachers for individual questions/help.
Stay safe and God Bless,
