As part of a school support team, school counselors provide critical social-emotional and academic supports. Through a comprehensive school counseling program that promotes success and achievement for all students, school counselors can help set students on a path for postsecondary success. School counselors help all students apply academic achievement strategies, manage emotions and apply interpersonal skills, strengthen mental wellness and explore and plan for postsecondary options such as higher education, military, and work force. This is achieved through direct and indirect services, such as individual sessions, small group sessions, classroom guidance lessons, supporting with parent/teacher conferences, serving as 504 coordinators and supporting with behavioral interventions.
