School Counselor
Welcome to the Forest Hill Elementary School Counselor page. My name is Mary Bailey and I am so happy to be serving Forest Hill Elementary as the school counselor this year.
About me: My passion is making a positive difference and I love working with children and helping them see their worth. I have two kids; my daughter is an upcoming Senior at Freedom High School and my son is just finishing up 8th grade at Table Rock Middle School, so will be starting his first year at Freedom. They are absolutely my pride and joy. I have four years of teaching experience and am now finishing up my second year as a school counselor. I am so happy to be back at Forest Hill; this is where I completed my student teaching. | http://clipart-library.com/counselor-cliparts.html |
School Counselor's Role:
I am above all here to support the students. School counselors follow the ASCA National Model, making sure all areas are met; social/emotional, academics, and career readiness. I will meet with the students individually, in small groups, and in classroom guidance lessons. I will advocate for the kids, support the parents, and assist as problems or concerns arise. I am also the 504 coordinator and am a member of the Attendance Committee. One of the main priorities for me as a school counselor is that your children are healthy and happy, as possible, so they are able to focus and learn.
