I used to call my counseling classes "guidance" but it changed two years back when one of my little peacemakers got out of her car in the morning, gave me a big hug and said she sure hoped that she was going to come to "Peace Class" today ... loved it and it stuck. So basically it's the old guidance class ... with a character twist ...
