We want to show our appreciation to our Amazing School Counselor, Lisa VanDyke! This week is School Counselor Appreciation Week! Show some love to Mrs. VanDyke for all she does for our students and staff!
Mrs. VanDyke is our school counselor. She strives to serve every student in the school with outstanding social and emotional instruction. Whether it is a planned classroom lesson or spur of the moment breathing exercise with a student in the hall, she loves supporting kids. She believes we all learn best when we are having fun and know we belong. In her spare time, you may find her running, paddleboarding, walking her dog Lily, and playing games with her family. Some of her favorites are Wavelength, 5 Crowns, and Sleeping Queens. She is known to have a soft spot for peanut M&Ms and Diet Coke.
Mrs. VanDyke also advises Hope Squad, facilitates MindUp, Learning2Breathe, and CATCH My Breath curriculum, and delivers college and career readiness initiatives.
We are so grateful to have Mrs. VanDyke at Sand Springs!
