      Wow! The school year has flown by, the fourth quarter is in full swing.   It is a great time to check and review your child's study habits. Parents are encouraged to use Clarity. Clarity is a great way to access information about your child's ongoing academic progess, not just at each quarter but any time.   Final report cards are mailed home along with the expungement forms.


      The schoool counseling staff at J.L. Simpson will periodically visit the resource classes to discuss topics, such as bullying, cyber bullying,  and career exploration. The subject matter varies depending on the grade level. For grade specific information visit the counselor's website. You can access it by clicking the counselor's name in the column to the left.

Our school Counselor's also provide students with individual and small group counseling, in the areas of academic and personal/social development.

If you need to set up a conference with your child's teachers, please contact your child's counselor to schedule it. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to call or email.
