Attention Parents of Howe 3rd-12th Grade Students:
Attention. 3rd-12th grade parents:
Howe Schools Counseling Department is mandated to conduct surveys and assessments to better serve our students and families by providing a safe and healthy environment for all students to succeed. One way we do this is by conducting annual surveys to see how we can improve our social emotional learning curriculum and provide a safe campus. We will be conducting three different surveys throughout the 2023-2024 school years. These surveys are confidential and optional. If you DO NOT want your child to participate please fill out this form https://forms.gle/sXs697v7Mgn1Bugv7 by November 13, 2023. Please complete one form per child. If you have additional questions please feel free to reach out to the counseling office. Elementary Counselor: Carmie Robertson, Middle School Counselor: Jessica Oldaker, High School Counselor's: Amy Donathan and Angela Duncan
