A recent article from a Tennessee newspaper describes the career satisfaction two women working as councilors in their local school system.

This week, the Cookeville Herald-Citizen profiled Sherron Luhn and Angie Arnett who, respectively, handle counseling duties for their town's elementary and middle school students.

"I have always been drawn to education, with counseling being my ultimate goal. I started teaching immediately after graduation in 1979 and after 30 years, it is as much a part of me as walking," Luhn told the newspaper, going on to explain that her own philosophy on counseling students focuses on developing lifelong character skills and fully understanding why they may act or feel certain ways.

For her part, Arnett was reportedly an activities coordinator for Easter Seals and a social services director at a nursing home before coming to work at the school. She told the newspaper that one of the things that made her ideal for her current job was an extroverted personality.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, demand for school counselors is expected to grow 13 percent in the coming years.
