Apollo High School

The first week of the month of February is observed as National School Counseling Week.
Schools all over America sponsor festivities and special activities in awareness of the special work that counselors do.

Apollo counselors had much to say about this week of recognition and the demanding but rewarding job they have chosen for their life.

Mrs. Kreke says,"I think it's important to help acknowledge the role that counselors play in the lives of our students and faculty. It's encouraging always to be given the love and support of the Eagle family members."

There are six members of the counselling staff. Counselors are freshman counselor Taylor, counselor to the sophomores Ms. Young, junior counselor Mr. Johnson and senior counselor Kreke.

"Mrs. Stuart and Ms. Tong aren't counselors, but they do most of our leg work and are very appreciated," says Mr. Taylor. "We are very fortunate to have them."
Apollo's counselors appreciate being appreciated any week of the year.

This week, however, is a special week which the schools of the nation have chosen to set aside to honor the care and guidance provided by these people. It is a way of saying thank you and we can't do without you.
