Sarah Flier
HUDSON Out of more than a hundred thousand counselors nationwide, Hudson’s own Sarah Flier was selected as one of five finalists for the American School Counselor Association’s National Counselor of the Year.
Flier, who works at Willow River Elementary, was selected as the Wisconsin Counselor of the Year earlier this spring.
“This was a complete shock,” Flier said of being selected as a finalist for national recognition.
The state-level nomination allowed her to apply for the national award. The process entailed an application including essays and videos of her leadership, collaboration and work for systemic change. She was one of the first Wisconsin counselors selected as a finalist in more than 10 years.
