Licensed counselor Margaret Whitmore enjoys helping Woodbury
students express their emotions through art.
At Woodbury, Principal Tiffany
Joseph says, “At the beginning of
the year, we had eight days of SEL
embedded into our daily schedule.
During our WIN (What I Need) period
in January, we changed our building
schedule to align lunch periods, so
that students had more opportunities
to interact with one another.”
Woodbury also added a licensed
professional counselor and art therapist
to the staff, Margaret Whitmore, to
help students learn productive ways to
cope and express their emotions.
