Counseling Program Mission Statement

Our mission is to provide a comprehensive counseling program that addresses the academic and personal/social development needs of all students. Because we expect all students to be productive members of the school community, the counseling program will identify and remove barriers to learning—helping every child soar to new heights!

School Counseling Services

Classroom Guidance
Whole-class guidance instruction is provided to all students, covering topics like:

• Feelings & Emotions
• Friendship & Social Skills
• Kindness
• Respecting Self and Others
• Anti-Bullying
• Personal Safety
• Conflict Resolution
• Character Education
• Anger Management
• Career Exploration

Small Group Counseling
Small groups offer students a chance to connect with peers who may be experiencing similar challenges, all within a supportive and safe environment.

Individual Counseling
Short-term, one-on-one counseling is available to support students dealing with academic concerns, social/emotional needs, or life transitions. While not a substitute for long-term therapy, individual counseling provides immediate support and, when needed, referrals to outside resources.
