Today we had the great opportunity to sit down with Mark Anderson, who just completed his first year as the Fergus Falls Senior High Principal. Starting in elementary education and working his way across the country and into administration, Mark has built an impressive resume. He joined our local school system 'post' pandemic at a time when our country is facing education challenges he could have never dreamed of.

We cover transitioning to 'normal', academics vs. emotional/mental well being, homework, cell phones and more.

With everything from the pandemic disruption to school shootings its no surprise that 'mental health' in our schools is a hot topic. We were fortunate enough to sit down with Nate Bailly, a Professional School Counselor, who has been practicing in our public schools for the past seven years. We cover the history and evolution of 'school counseling', what counselors actually do vs. what we think they do, where the profession is heading, how parents and professionals can partner and leverage each other to help students and so much more.

Here is a pro-tip: If you think you may need counseling or profession therapy, the answer is yes. Get some. Mental health is for everyone.

Also, if you or someone you know is looking for mental health help, here are some resources for you:

Mike doesn’t always roll a joint, but when he does, it’s his ankle.

Snoop Dogg has always lived the high life, and now he's treating his professional blunt roller to a raise. Due to inflation, Snoop decided to give his main man "lurch" a salary increase for his pristine blunt rolling skills.

We are all in the wrong business.
