End-of-Year Celebration for Counselors
June 3, 2022
The Counseling Services Department held an end-of-the-year Counselor Celebration for 165 Plano ISD counselors. Counselors were celebrated for the outstanding work they did throughout this past year supporting our students. During the celebration, five counselors were honored as Counselor of the Year Finalists:
- Nancy Garcia-Smith, counselor at Clark High School
- Robin Gott, counselor at Jasper High School
- Nikole Roberson, counselor at Otto Middle School
- Yahaira Rodriguez, counselor at Plano West Senior High School
- Julie Thrift, counselor at Stinson Elementary School
These individuals were nominated by their campus staff and then were selected as the five finalists by their counseling peers. Yahaira Rodriguez, counselor at Plano West Senior High School, was named as the first-ever Plano ISD Counselor of the Year.
Thank you to Plano ISD counselors for all that they do!
