HELLO SEGUIN SUNS!

As the counselor at Seguin ECC, I support and promote the academic, personal, social, and emotional development of all students. Social and emotional learning is an important component of early school readiness and healthy child development. Research has shown that children`s development of social and emotional skills at prekindergarten age is critical for long-term school and life success.

SIX PILLARS OF CHARACTER

LCISD utilizes the Six Pillars of Character throughout the year in guidance lessons, and as a foundation for our campus cultures. The Six Pillars of Character are the core ethical values of CHARACTER COUNTS!
Each of The Six Pillar of Character traits are used within our CHARACTER COUNTS! program to help instill a positive school climate and a culture of kindness, making schools a safe environment for students to learn.
The traits are: Trustworthiness, Respect, Caring, Citizenship, Fairness, and Responsibility.
Guidance lessons are taught each week focusing on these character traits!

Classroom Guidance—I meet with all classes, each week, throughout the year to present lessons that reflect the Character Traits.
