Hello! My name is Loriann Jensen, and I am a very proud member of the RUES crew. As a school counselor, I have the unique opportunity to get to know all the awesome 4 th and 5 th grade students in Teton Valley. I do this through classroom lessons, small-group, and individual sessions. Classroom lessons are from a curriculum called Purposefull People (see Character Strong) that focuses on 9 character traits based on the principles of Be Kind, Be Well, and Be Strong. Throughout the year students will be learning about respect, responsibility, gratitude, empathy, perseverance, honesty, cooperation, courage, and creativity. Through our comprehensive counseling program, we hope to provide the knowledge, attitude, and skills necessary for our student’s future success. At RUES we strive for every student to be healthy, competent, and confident learners and the counseling program is an integral part of that vision.
Please reach out with any questions about what I do or concerns for your student at [email protected] or 208-228-5926.
Thank you, I look forward to getting to know you this year!
