Cascade Champions — Where Readers Become Leaders! 🐴📖
🌟 Empowering Our School Leaders & Student Support Team at SCALI! 🌟
Recently, Bedford County Schools school counselors, Community in Schools partners, administrators, and our SEL & Mental Health Supervisor came together at the School Counselor and Administrators Leadership Institute (SCALI) to learn, grow and connect. 💼✨🤝
This year’s theme, Passion, Purpose, Position!, encouraged participants to reflect on the important role they play in supporting #students and strengthening school communities.
Throughout SCALI, participants explored critical topics including trauma, mental health support, behavior intervention strategies, collaboration and more. These professional learning opportunities provide valuable tools and insights to help our team respond to #student needs and create supportive learning environments. 🧠🌱🏫
#CommunityHighSchool Counselor Jordan Tatom also led a professional development session, Defined by Law, Guided by Ethics: Maximizing the School Counselor Role, sharing his expertise with fellow school counselors and administrators.
We’re proud of the commitment our team continues to make to professional growth and to strengthening the support available to students across Bedford County Schools. 💛🖤

🌉 Shoutout to Bridge Bedford for helping our students BE A BRIDGE!
We’re grateful to #BridgeBedford for meeting with leaders from all six of our middle schools and supporting “Be a Bridge,” a student recognition program celebrating young people who strengthen their schools and communities.
So, what does it mean to BE A BRIDGE?
B — BELONG: Help others feel seen, welcomed and included.
R — REACH: Connect with someone outside your own circle.
I — INVEST: Give your time, ideas and talents.
D — DISCOVER: Take an interest in the people and possibilities around you.
G — GROW: Look for ways to make yourself and your community better.
E — ENCOURAGE: Use your words and actions to lift others.
A student who is A BRIDGE might welcome someone sitting alone, help without being asked, encourage a classmate, volunteer, take pride in their school - or simply notice something that could be better and chooses to help.
These students show us that connection, character, service and pride of place start young. ❤️
Bridge Bedford delivered a check to each of our six middle schools to help provide small rewards for students recognized through the program.
Thank you, Bridge Bedford, for investing in our students and celebrating those who are already making a difference! 🌉💙
