It’s time to shine the spotlight on those who work behind the scenes to help our county’s students thrive. The Fayette County School Counselor Association (FSCA) has announced the 2023 Counselors of the Year and Advocate of the Year.
Mecoya Daniels of Fayette County High is the High School Counselor of the Year.
Natalie Grubbs of Whitewater Middle is the Middle School Counselor of the Year.
Monique Collins of Peeples Elementary is the Elementary School Counselor of the Year.
In addition to naming the school counselors of the year, the FCSA recognizes a person outside of school counseling who has contributed to the success of school counselors throughout the county. Kim Bryan, a social worker with Student Services for Fayette County Public Schools, is the Advocate of the Year.
The Fayette County School Counselor of the Year award honors the best of the best, counselors who are running a top-notch, comprehensive school counseling program at their schools. Nominations for the award are made by fellow counselors and are based upon the recognition of qualities that include the counselor’s effectiveness, dedication to the position, and the level of support the individual provides to students. Counselors also submit nominations for the person they feel deserves to be named the advocate of the year.
The objectives of the FSCA are to advance the profession of school counseling; to promote an improved understanding and appreciation of school counseling services; to enhance a spirit of unity, cooperation, support, and fellowship among counselors and our communities; and to provide opportunities for professional development.
