School counselors gain permission from students before sharing confidential information. There are times School Counselors may need a signed Release of Information to share information with others.

School counselors are legally required to share confidential information  with others ( with or without consent) when:

• Students engage in behavior that presents clear and imminent danger to themselves or others or someone is hurting you.

• The counselor suspects child abuse or neglect

• The court requires them to do so

When legally required to share, we only reveal essential information.
