Have a wonderful weekend. We look forward to seeing our students on Monday morning!

On behalf of the entire Scott’s Branch Middle High School family, we would like to extend our heartfelt congratulations to you on your new position. While we are incredibly proud of this well-deserved accomplishment, we will truly miss your presence, guidance, and unwavering compassion in our district.
Over the past several years, you have poured your heart into our students, families, and staff. Your dedication has gone far beyond the responsibilities of a school counselor—you have been a mentor, an advocate, a motivator, and a constant source of support. Your ability to listen with patience, lead with kindness, and inspire with purpose has made a lasting impact on every life you’ve touched.
You created a safe space for students to dream, plan, and grow, and you guided them through some of their most important decisions. You uplifted them during challenging moments and celebrated them during their triumphs. For that, and for so much more, we are deeply grateful.
As you move into this next chapter of your career, please know that your SBMH family is cheering you on. Your leadership, wisdom, and passion will continue to shine bright in your new district, just as they did here. Though we will miss seeing you in our hallways, your influence will remain with us for years to come.
Thank you, Dr. Lemon, for your love, your commitment, and your remarkable service to the Eagle community. We wish you continued success, fulfillment, and joy in all that lies ahead.
With appreciation and warmest wishes,
Your Scott’s Branch Middle High School Family
