This page contains resources that can help parents and guardians navigate the waters of having a middle school student. As a parent myself, I know that every developmental stage comes with new conversations with my kids, new challenges, and new successes as they become productive members of society. As a school counselor, I research articles about the social/emotional needs of my students. It's important for me to be able to assist students during the school day, but the most important work comes from YOU (aka...their most trusted adult) at home. If these resources can help you, I would love to hear from you! And if there is something you'd like to see more of, I'd love to hear that from you, too! - Your child's school counselor, Mrs. Thomas
