Vermont/St. Kitts School Counselor Exchange
Attention School Counselors in Northwestern Vermont:
There is an exciting opportunity coming up: The Vermont/St. Kitts School Counselor Exchange. Counselors from St. Kitts will visit Vermont in early September to experience our schools and culture.  The weekly exchange will be returned Oct 16-24 when the Vermont Counselors will visit their counterparts in St. Kitts.  This professional development and service activity will entail fund-raising to pay for the St. Kitt’s Counselors visit.  There will also be a cost for the Vermont Counselor’s visit to St. Kitts.  There will be an opportunity to receive three Johnson State graduate credits for this experience.  If interested, please call Katharine Hutchinson at 524-5106 (home) or 527-6576 (work).
