School Counseling Services
Counseling Core Curriculum Classroom Lessons: The counselors visit each classroom multiple times throughout the school year and have the opportunity to interact with every student during these lessons. Lessons focus on academic support skills, interpersonal/personal skills and career readiness.
Individual Counseling: Some students can benefit from one-on-one counseling regarding academic, personal or interpersonal challenges. Please note that individual counseling is not therapy. It is beyond the role of the school counselor to conduct in-depth, on-going individual sessions. Community counseling resources can be provided by the counselors. Teachers, parents or students may request to see a counselor.
Group Counseling: A variety of small groups are offered to students who may benefit from spending some extra time developing academic, personal, or interpersonal skills. Groups can have anywhere from 3-6 members and typically meet for about 6 sessions.
Parents can email us if they believe their child would benefit from meeting with a counselor.
