Скачать или смотреть Elizabeth Burrows - 2016 Impact Award Recipient

It is not often that a single person can be identified as the “heart of our school,” but Summit Middle School’s Elizabeth Burrows fits that moniker. The parents, staff, and students who contributed to her nomination all agreed that she is much more than a counselor, with her impact felt in every part of Summit Middle School from classroom to living room. She transcends the conventional norms of counseling work by not only working with students in the social and emotional realm, but also working one-on-one on non-cognitive skills, running small groups at lunch, leading the student council and student ambassador club, coordinating the school’s parent council, and even guest teaching the 8th grade health class! Summit Middle School’s principal said it best, “Her limitless compassion, her graceful selflessness, and her infectious smile embody all that is good and possible in education.”
