When the former Guidance Counselor of Miami Palmetto High School retired after forty-two years on the job, the school board decided they wanted something different, they didn't want to sign a new contract for a new full time faculty member so they took a different approach.
-----------------------------------------------
Lauren Jauregui is a 22 year old former child genius, who started High School at the age of 10 and entered University at 14. By the age of 17 she had completed her Undergraduate work and received her Bachelor's degree in Psychology and at 21, after cramming 5 years of schooling into just 4 years, she received her Master's Degree from Berkeley, ultimately deciding to return home to finish her education at the University of Miami. A friend of her Mother's told her about an opening at the local high school, they needed someone who was available part-time and with classes of her own, the schedule worked for both the school board and Lauren; And to seal the deal the board agreed she could use her experience working at Palmetto to complete the Independent Research portion of her degree that she needed to do in order to receive the Doctorate she so badly wanted.
Lauren sailed through the interview and got the job, she was young enough to relate to the students on a personal level and that intrigued the school board who had struggled with finding Guidance Counselors that the students felt comfortable talking to, but what happens when things become too personal with one student in particular?
