October’s Break The Mold award winner is Conner Middle School Nurse Lisa Schmidt.  School nurses are the front-line defense even before first responders can arrive. They break down barriers for students to learn, especially for students with chronic illnesses.  There’s far more to being a school nurse than dispensing medications. In this video you learn what nurse Schmidt means to the Conner Middle School community.

IV.B. Kentucky School Counselor Association Emerging Leaders Award
Rationale

The Kentucky School Counselor Association (KSCA) recently held their annual state conference in Lexington, KY.  During this conference, an awards ceremony was held recognizing school counselors and other educators and stakeholders who have made an impact on the profession.  The Emerging Leaders was one of the awards given.  This award is for those school counselors who are looking to enhance their advocacy, professionalism, and leadership within a statewide position.  During their one-year term, these award winners will serve on a KSCA committee, present a training on a topic within their expertise, and attend board meetings to learn the processes and procedures of the KSCA board. Boone County is proud to have 3 school counselors chosen as Emerging Leaders for KSCA.  Terri Hall of Steeplechase Elementary, Jessica Longland of Kelly Elementary and Clarissa Desmond of the Boone County District Office.  Congratulations ladies.
