Just what do school counselors do and how can they help your student?

The mission of our counseling program is to provide a developmentally appropriate, multi-tiered, proactive, and responsive program that creates a safe, welcoming, and caring environment for our students. We help support social-emotional, academic, and career growth. Counselors advocate for equity and access to maximize the full potential of every student. 

Through collaboration with our school community, we hope to provide a program that supports our students both now and beyond their elementary years as they grow into productive, empathetic citizens. Our counselors are able to help students and families with a variety of needs.

All school counselors:

  • Counsel students individually or in group settings.
  • Counsel students on career planning and goals.
  • Develop a guidance plan based on campus needs.
  • Respond to student needs in crisis situations.
  • Orient students to new school settings.
  • Work with absentees and at-risk students.
  • Refer students to special programs and/or services when necessary.
  • Conduct conferences with parents and teachers.
  • Analyze test results to provide information about abilities and achievement.

School counselors also perform additional duties and are always available to assist students and families in a variety of ways. Please feel free to contact your student’s counselor today to find out how they can best assist your student in their educational needs.
