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!

We're seeing a stomach bug making the rounds at Louis Sheffield this week. If your child isn't feeling well, please keep them home until they're symptom-free for at least 24 hours without fever-reducing medication.
How to help: ✓ Encourage handwashing (especially before eating & after bathroom breaks) ✓ Keep sick kids home to protect others ✓ Offer plenty of fluids ✓ Contact your pediatrician if symptoms worsen
We're taking extra precautions with cleaning and sanitizing throughout the building. Thanks for working with us to keep everyone healthy! 💪
