The goal of the guidance and school counseling program at Murdock is based on our school's mission statement, "to create lifelong learners by establishing a balanced foundation based on character, creativity, and achievement". Counselors will implement the program using a developmental approach (K-5) within three major categories: classroom guidance, individual counseling, and small group counseling. Classroom guidance topics are based on state and local guidelines that encourage a model for life-long learning with an emphasis on decision making and communication skills. Topics include: personal safety, health and personal development, test taking/study skills, career awareness, friendship/conflict resolution, and character education. Small group and individual counseling is offered to students in the areas of: anger management, divorce and separation, grief and loss, social skill building. Teachers, administrators, parents, and students can make referrals for small groups and/or individual counseling. Written parental permission will be obtained before students participate in small group counseling. In addition, we offer activities for newcomers and provide leadership opportunities.
