^this. Some CoS roles are also intended to be 2 yr positions, not positioned to transition to senior leadership

I’ve always bagged CoS staff roles only to see them leap ahead of me to decent strategy roles a few years later. Lol. Jokes on me I guess.

She is so worried about people picking on her and not having friends. I have reached out to the counselor and principal with hopes to get her some support in school, but I can’t do anything to make it better. I feel like I should be able to do more than encourage her but I know some battles she had to fight on her own.
