Christian Isaiah Dorsey-McQueen, Student, Sage Creek High School
"The Counseling 100 class was probably one of the best courses I've taken throughout my entire school career. As students, we often ask ourselves "When will I use this in real life?” In Counseling 100, the curriculum is actually teaching you what you want to know and what you *need* to know. We have explored topics such as procrastination and solutions to deal with it, as well as personal identity and ways we can use our personal identity for the future, whether it be college or the workforce."
