This is a Google Sheets spreadsheet that can be used to track phone calls. Useful for school personnel including school psychologist, school counselor, social worker, principals, assistant principals, SLPs, OTs, PTs, etc. Anyone who receives phone calls that require documentation and potentially follow up. The spreadsheet improves efficiency by marking phone calls that require a callback as purple, those that require paperwork followup as blue and if the date completed is listed, the color is cleared indicating no further followup required. A blank or a 'no' in the followup column also leaves the row unfilled with color. Monthly colored sheets within the larger document make keeping track of calls easy. As always, feel free to reach out with any questions!

Whether it's that enormous caseload of students, pesky parents phoning daily, or the ever-increasing pressure from your administrator to see graduation rates improve, we counselors are used to the precarious position of wearing about 765 different hats.

**Please Note: You must scroll to the bottom of this post and click on the text link to download the presentation. I am not able to individually email copies of the presentation at this time.** A new school year brings another round of School Counselor Intro lessons. Last year, I attempted to combine my meet the counselor lesson with a bullying lesson to save time but it really wasn't effective. After trying to kill two birds with one stone, I've come to the belief that elementary school counselors should have a separate intro lesson. Reasons why I didn't like combining

*Digital* file to print for your office, dorm room, or waiting area. The sizing is 8" x 8", but can be scaled up or down if needed. I'm a licensed clinical social worker, clinical supervisor and mom. Throughout my career I have worked in a variety of fields, but in every single one I found myself creating resources for myself that did not already exist. Everything that I have created came from a need that I have experienced myself or a colleague has experienced during my 13 years of practice. It could be cute and relevant office decor, a worksheet, or just something to make my life a little easier. My goal is to show up here the same way I show up for my clients: accepting, real, and a little weird. Don't hesitate to reach out if I can answer any questions for you!

From Ten To Thirty-Five Years, These Celebrity Couples Have Many Years Separating Them
Imagine you get a phone call from your best friend saying she needs you to pick her up at work right away. She is working on a high-stress...
If anyone reads this, you know that I changed schools in April. I'm permanent! Yay! I moved to a very new building; the school opened in April 2011, so you'll see that everything looks very fresh and bright and new. I thought I'd post some photos of my new classroom. Hopefully in August/September I will post my setting up process when I "start from scratch." This is what you see when you first walk into the class. Yes, those are lovely big windows along the back wall. Looking into the class on the right, we have our meeting area with the SMARTboard. I also have two of these portable double sided whiteboards. They are FAB. I've since moved this one so that I have easier access to the cupboards behind it, and so there is more room for the children to sit on the floor. This is our computer area. These are all connected to the internet. The laptop on the far right is mine that connects to the SMARTboard. My school is open plan. All the walls between classrooms and out to the corridor can be opened up. The walls to the corridor all must be open (which took me all of a day to get used to), but the walls between each class are closed in the Senior wing. I've put borders up on the wall that divides my classroom to the one next door so that it can still open when we need it to (like for our Science Fair this week). I have a tiny wee book corner as there isn't much room for anything more, but the kids seem to like it. And yes, that's a sky-light in the next photo! I have a remote control that opens it up to let in some fresh air. It also automatically detects rain and closes on it own (a great feature to have in Scotland!). These tray shelves are brilliant. Each child has their own tray labelled with their name. In them, they keep unfinished work, personal whiteboards/pens, homework diaries, and reading books. The extra ones are used by me to store spelling resources, extra whiteboards/pens, writing resources, etc. The other photo is VERY important for the smooth running of my classroom. Children know to look to the "I'm Done" board when they are finished their tasks so they know what to do next. These photos depict my Behaviour Birds clip chart. The children each have their own peg with their name. They start on "Perfect Peacock" and move up or down depending on their behaviour. You can buy your own in my TpT store. My kids love this! As a class, there is always something they need to work harder at. Right now, it's being a quality audience. If they show that they are working towards mastering this skill, they get to add a piece to Mr. Potato Head. When he's finished, they get 5 extra minutes of play time. On one of my whiteboards, I have 3 folders for handing in any work that is not written in a jotter. Kids have to think about how they did on their task as they hand it in. Work completed in jotters already has self assessment forms stuck in them. That's the tour for now. As I add things to the new room I'll add more photos. Do you have a classroom tour on your blog? I'd love to see!

Documentation is crucial in today's litigious society. School personnel interacts with a variety of people when supporting student needs. School principals, assistant principals, district administrators, school counselors, psychologists, social workers, and teachers should always document phone conversations for their protection. Failure to document can lead to accusations that personnel did not do anything to address concerns about a student's academics or social and emotional needs. Essentially, if it is not documented, it did not happen. Professionals should document like their career depends on it! CYA! The purpose of a call log is to record the main points of the conversation, not all of the details. Remember that parents have the right to their child's educational records, so be cautious about what is put in writing. The Call Log includes: An index to record all calls for a quick reference Space to document 100 phone calls Please note this is a PDF that is NOT editable. If you like this product, please consider rating it! I am new to TpT and would love your help in spreading the word about my resources.

When you graduated with your degree in school counseling, it's probably safe to assume that the tall task of building and maintaining parent relationships was not at the forefront of your hopes and dreams as a high school counselor. In reality, navigating communication with parents can be time-consuming, exhausting, and, at times, downright exasperating. In a single phone call, you can go from student advocate to customer service representative (who just got an unfair ear-full from a disgruntled customer.)
