State Rep. Marcie Maxwell (D-Renton) was recently honored as the Legislative Advocate of the Year by the Washington School Counselor Association (WSCA). Maxwell serves as the Deputy Majority Leader for Education & Opportunity in the House of Representatives.

The organization, which represents the certificated professional school counselors who work in public and private schools, cited Maxwell’s “tireless advocacy” for improving public education for all students and efforts to allocate more resources for school counseling.

Maxwell serves the 41st Legislative District, which includes the southern portion of Bellevue and the communities of Beaux Arts, Mercer Island and Newcastle.
