Welcome to the Colt's Counseling Corner
I'm Mrs. Smith your Elementary School Counselor at Walnut Elementary. As we navigate this new year of 2025-2026 learning my hope is to continue to provide resources and content that can help your student with their social- emotional development and wellness.
During the school year, I work with students by providing whole classroom lessons, targeted group counseling during lunch, and individual counseling. I also collaborate with teachers, staff, parents, and community members for student support and parent resources.
May
May can be full of big transitions! Helping kids with big transitions—like moving, starting a new school, or a new family dynamic—requires a mix of preparation, empathy, and consistency. Focus on giving them advance notice, validating their emotions, and empowering them with simple choices to build security.
