 This Month’s School counseling tip Tuesday topic is Goal-Setting. Do you ever think about the future? What you want to be when you grow up? Where you want to live or what kind of house you’d like to live in? This is all linked to goal-setting. In order for your goal to be realistic, it must be SMART! Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-Bound. For more information, stop by your counselor’s office or see your English teacher.
