Kudos for Chapter President

Deb Boyer, counselor at Aurora Elementary School, was doubly honored recently at the Mid-Winter Conference in Bismarck.

The North Dakota School Counselor Association (NDSCA) presented the 2015 NDSCA Outstanding Counselor of the Year Award to Ms. Boyer. Finalists are judged on several criteria: creative school counseling innovations, effective counseling programs, leadership skills and contributions to student enhancement.

She received the 2015 North Dakota Association for Counselor Education & Supervision (ND ACES) Dr. Robert C. Nielsen Supervisor of the Year Award. The NDSCA ND ACES recognizes the supervisor that provides outstanding supervision to ND university counseling interns and/or ND pre-licensure counselors. Award recipients must demonstrate sustained excellence in supervision marked by compassion, caring and commitment to optimism.

From the West Fargo Public School District, Debbie received the Kaleidoscope Award from Dr. Flowers! He makes kaleidoscopes and this is his way of recognizing people in the district for their outstanding achievement.

Congratulations!
