Summary
Cullman County Schools recognized several counselors whose programs earned the Alabama School Counseling Program of Distinction and are now eligible for the national RAMP award; the board named the counselors and their schools during its meeting.
Cullman County Schools recognized a group of school counselors at its board meeting after the district’s counseling programs earned the Alabama School Counseling Program of Distinction, making them eligible for the national Recognized ASCA Model Program (RAMP) award.
Doctor Barnett, who announced the honors, said the distinction “represents years of dedication, collaboration, and intentional work to build a comprehensive school counseling program that truly serves students and families.” He named the staff and their schools: Tiffany Davis, Cold Springs Elementary; Amy Kenny, Cold Springs High; Laura Rankhorn, Good Hope Middle; Maddie Looney, Good Hope Primary; Jessica Reeves, Hansville Elementary (not present); and Kelly Scott, West Point Intermediate.
The superintendent said counselors complete a series of trainings and curriculum work to demonstrate the capabilities required for the distinction and that the district likely now has more counselors with the award than many other districts in the state. The recognition was made before the board proceeded with routine agenda items.
