CELEBRATING SCHOOL COUNSELORS — Team Duval is proud to recognize National School Counseling Week and the incredible impact our more than 240 school counselors make every single day. They advocate for students, help them navigate their academic journeys, and guide them toward their goals. Our success as an A-rated district with a 97.6% graduation rate would not be possible without these dedicated professionals. As part of this special week, dozens of counselors gathered at the Schultz Center for their annual conference, focused on building student “superpowers” like grit and resilience – perfectly aligned with the national theme of helping students thrive and preparing them for college, career, and life. Their commitment to growing their own “superpowers” directly fuels student success across Team Duval. Join us in thanking our outstanding school counselors for the lasting difference they make in our schools and community!
I want to take a moment to express my deep gratitude to everyone at Enterprise Learning Academy for making School Counselors Week so special. It was truly a week I’ll never forget!
To the incredible staff, inspiring teachers, amazing students, and supportive parents – thank you for the heartfelt gifts, thoughtful cards, and kind words. Your generosity and warm wishes made me feel so appreciated and reminded me of how lucky I am to be part of such a wonderful school community.
I am beyond grateful for the opportunity to serve as your school counselor, and I’m thankful for all the trust, collaboration, and support I receive each day. It’s a privilege to work alongside all of you to support our students in their academic, social, and emotional growth.
Thank you again for your kindness and for making last week so memorable. I truly appreciate each and every one of you! 💙
With gratitude,
Ms. April C. Moore

Thank you to our parents, faculty, and staff for helping make this year’s Penguin Patch Holiday Shop such a wonderful success. Last week, our students were thrilled to have the opportunity to shop for their family and friends, and the joy on their faces truly made the experience special.
This event would not have been possible without the support, time, and teamwork of our Enterprise family. Your involvement helped create lasting memories for our students and made the Holiday Shop a meaningful experience for everyone.
Thank you again for your continued support.
Warm regards,
Ms. April C. Moore
School Counselor
Just a friendly reminder....this is the last week to bring in donations! We appreciate your generosity and support!
Dear Parents and Guardians,
We are excited to share that our Penguin Patch Holiday Shop is now open! This fun shopping experience gives students the opportunity to choose special gifts for family and friends in a safe and supportive environment.
To make the process even easier this year, online payment is available!
Parents can pre-pay online so students don’t need to bring cash to school.
How Online Pay Works
1. Visit the Penguin Patch payment link provided (Link:
https://penguinpatch.com/penguinpay/TJPVWA)
Code: TJPVWA (if needed)
2. Choose the amount you’d like to load for your child.
(if you choose you can print the student receipt, but we will have it on file)
3. Send your child to the Holiday Shop—our volunteers will help them stay within their budget using their online account. (please note, change can not be given back to your students).
Online pay is a simple, secure way to help your child shop independently while giving you peace of mind.
Thank you for supporting our school and helping make this event a memorable experience for all students. If you have any questions, please contact Ms. Moore, School Counselor.
Warm regards,
Ms. Moore
