Counseling Program Overview

Classroom Lessons: Counselors provide lessons to every classroom throughout the school year  We are not “counseling” in the classes; instead, we are providing children with the resources and strategies to feel their best and do their bestThe lessons focus on the three domains:  academic, career, and personal/social. Topics include: 

  • Test-taking skills 

  • Listening skills 

  • College and career awareness 

  • Friendship/communication skills 

  • Personal Safety 

  • Cooperation 

  • Study Skills- time management, organization, etc. 

  •  

Individual Sessions: Individual and/or crisis counseling is available to all students on a short-term basis. A referral to see a counselor may be requested by a student, parent, teacher or administrator. We do not provide long-term or regular counseling sessions, but we can refer you to agencies in the community who do, including our school-based partner, Chris 180.
