Dr. Franklin spent a few days last week doing some contract work with 18/19 year olds. They reminded her so much of her old high school seniors that she got homesick.

When she first started, there were students sitting in chairs, on the steps, and leaning on the walls, waiting for me. As we spoke, she found out that many of them had never met with their high school counselor...but they needed to. As they shared their stories, the common theme was that they had fallen through the cracks in high school. They were all black and brown kids, they were all lower-achieving in their academics, they were all
overlooked or ignored, and they all needed help that they never got but that they should have received. We have to do better with this population of child. She met with them for 10 minutes each. In those 10 minutes, they talked and cried, they cried and talked. She held them and rocked them. So much trauma.

Educators, as we prepare to return to school, remember to handle the kids who appear to be the toughest…with the most gentle gloves. Things have happened to them that have made them need to be tough to survive. And if you think you don’t have time to make a difference…it only took her 10 minutes…

One of the most amazing things about this job is sharing with young adults. Dr. Franklin got to speak with a wonderful group of high school girls about how she uses the research from her dissertation in her consultant work with school counseling programs. In discussion, several of the young ladies nodded their heads in agreement with her findings and one of the girls said, “Mm-hmm.” Dr. Franklin responded, “Let’s talk about that mm-hmm” and the student shared her experiences with her school counselor. It’s called research because it’s true. So many kids are not on their counselors’ radar and too often, the ones left out are the ones who need the most support. It is so important for school counselors to bond with their students, learn their stories, and put together a solid academic plan for them.

Tonight Intersection had another opportunity to work with Illinois school administrators to develop the role their school counselors play in master scheduling. Spoiler alert: school counselors do not play a role in the creation of the master schedule! Dr. Franklin advocated for school counselors using the national model established by the American School Counselors Association (ASCA). Have questions? Just ASCA! 😉

Divorce or domestic mediation is a structured process in which an impartial, professionally trained person, called a mediator, meets with the parties involved in a disagreement and assists them in reaching a solution that is mutually acceptable.

Intersection, LLC will work with both parties to resolve the division of assets, negotiate and renegotiate parenting time, and any other concerning issues. Mediation saves both time and money for parties.
