Counselor's Corner

A letter to the Mayer community...

Dear Mayer Families,

I hope you are healthy and doing well. We are certainly living an unprecedented time. Creating routines and a level of normalcy is not easy. We cannot forget that our kids are adjusting to new expectations. We need to take a step back and acknowledge that we are living in what will be a part of our world history. I encourage you and your kids to keep a journal for the next few weeks, use drawings, clippings, photographs, interviews, hand written accounts and more. It will be a priceless piece of history that they will be able to share with their own children in years to come.

I also encourage you to not forget to be kind to yourselves as we adjust. I am hoping to be able to serve our Mayer community as best I can. Please send me an email with what some of your social emotional needs are. I will do my best to compile resources for you. alsolis@cps.edu

For this upcoming week I encourage you to try our Social Emotional Mayer Bingo. Share pictures with me of the kids. I would love to put together an online album to share with our school community in days to come!

Stay healthy and take care. We are in this together.

Respectfully, Ms. Solis ( Ana)
