    Over 86% of the students in Dallas ISD are economically disadvantaged, over 90% minorities. It is imperative that educators are able to understand student’s needs and effectively work with our student demographic. Often, many are focused on students’ academics but are not taking into account home life, things they have seen, or their daily stressors. For that reason, I became a counselor, to be someone students can talk to in their time of need; to hone in on those social and emotional aspects which will assist in improving their academics.…

    Keeping my three personal and professional goals realistic, I would have to say a personal goal is to finish school at SNHU with a 3.0 GPA or above. I think a way for me to accomplish this goal is to stay focused on the tasks at hand, maintain a good relationship with my advisors and to utilize some of the tutoring options that are available to me as a student. Another personal goal is to work on myself, mentally. I cannot be a good mom or wife when I have the stress, anxiety and depression that I do. A way to help accomplish this goal is to not only start speaking with a psychiatrist (first appointment is August 4th) but to also have my thyroid checked.…
