Welcome!


WELCOME to the 2019-2020 school year!

I am the School Counselor at the Junior High. I have been here for 12 years and honestly, each year is better than the last! I earned my Bachelor's degree from THE Ohio State University and my Master's degree from the University of Toledo.
I am a Licensed School Counselor (LSC), not a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). School Counselors work within three broad domains: academic, career, and social/emotional development. These domains promote mindsets and behaviors that enhance the learning process and create a culture of college and career readiness for all students.
Here are a few things you may want to contact me about this year!
  • Academic concerns
  • Social concerns
  • Big changes at home
  • Recommendations for outside counseling
  • Available community resources and help
  • Recommendations for outside tutors
  • Anything that may affect your student's learning
  • If you do not know who to talk to about something, you can always start with me
Email is the best way to reach me quickly:
law.jennifer@lexington.k12.oh.us

I am looking forward to seeing everyone, and to a great school year!

Focus

Do you have trouble focusing? Here is a fun tip that ANYONE can use, at ANY TIME! All you need is a pen and 1 minute! Step 1: Find a pen or pencil. Step 2: Hold it up to your face, about 1 foot away. Step 3: Focus on the end of the pencil for 1 minute (setting a timer will help you to avoid being distracted). For this one minute of time, do not allow yourself to think about anything else! Just focus on the end of the pencil! This would be great to try before beginning your homework, studying, at the beginning of a big game or race, anytime! I would love to know what everyone thinks of this. I will be trying it also:) I challenge you to use this trick at least once this week! (It might be good to try this before or during the Math & Science testing:) One Minute Life Hack Will Make You Do Everything Better!
