We can’t celebrate National School Counseling Week without giving a huge shout-out to the incredible ladies who keep our Guidance Office running smoothly behind the scenes 💙
✨ Linda Burton, our registrar, and ✨ Courtney Pickerill, our guidance secretary, are truly the backbone of our department. From managing student records and grades to working their magic in Infinite Campus, they handle all the details that keep everything functioning properly.
If something runs smoothly, chances are Linda and Courtney made it happen. Their organization, patience, and dedication are the reason our counselors can do what they do best—support students every day.
We absolutely couldn’t do this work without them. Thank you, Linda and Courtney, for being amazing! 👏💙

It’s National School Counseling Week, and we’re so grateful for the incredible counseling team who make WJHS such a special place!
This year’s theme, *School Counselors Amplify Student Success*, couldn’t be more fitting. Every single day, our counselors go above and beyond—listening, encouraging, and guiding our Colts as they discover their passions, set goals, and grow into confident, connected citizens. Because of them, our students don’t just succeed… they thrive.
Colts, help us show the love! Drop a ❤️ or a quick note in the comments to thank our counselors for everything they do 👇
