Confidentiality and Crisis

Confidentiality and Reporting

All School Counselors must follow state laws regarding the reporting of suspected child abuse. We support children throughout this very challenging process and work to ensure safety above all else. 

If a child is a threat to his/herself or others we will immediately contact the legal guardian and discuss appropriate next steps. We want all children to remain safe both in and out of school. The Big Spring Counseling Department works to support families.
