The Counselor also receives regular feedback from the SEL Action Team.
Parents offer feedback through Campus Improvement Team, our PTA, parent survey responses for Title 1, and email and digital responses.
Students from the campus leadership group and service organization are asked to rank their preferences for activity participation with the advisory group being one of their choices. Students who express interest in this activity are invited to participate. Individual students also have the opportunity for input through lesson exit tickets.
The Mitchell Design Team implements staff and student procedures, campus areas of focus, and campus academic and social design, as well as provides feedback about the implementation of the Calm Boxes and the Mood Meter. The Design Team helps with identifying campus needs and brainstorming approaches to best support students, families, and staff at Mitchell through the counseling office.
Counseling Program Plan
Principal Agreement was created in conjunction with Campus Design Team and Campus Leadership Team Goals and Objectives, as well as a commitment to GISD Learner Profile Traits and Texas Model of Comprehensive Guidance competencies, based on needs assessments from teachers, students and parents. Georgetown ISD's commitment to SEL, including the 3 Signature Practices to integrate Social Emotional Learning And Academic Success also played a part in the goalsetting process.
