Why do Students need School Counseling?

• Students who understand their feelings are better able to control their behaviors

• We know that stress can affect focus and learning, but its impact can be reduced with self-regulation strategies

• Attitudes formed during elementary school shape future attitudes towards learning, self, and society

• School, parents, and communities that communicate and collaborate provide the most effective support to children

• Children learn best when they feel good about themselves and their relationships with others

School Counseling Services:

Individual counseling, small group counseling, classroom guidance lessons, crisis intervention, consultation with parents and teachers, coordination with outside resources, referrals to community services, and more!

Here are some activities you can complete with your child at home to build social and emotional connection.
