Middle School
SCHOOL COUNSELORS
What do we do?
We work closely with students, faculty & staff, community members, and stakeholders.
Classroom Guidance Lessons
We visit each classroom, grades 4-8, multiple times throughout the school year and have the chance to interact with every student during these lessons. Lessons typically last 30 minutes in length and cover topics such as positive coping skills, career exploration, understanding feelings of self and others, problem solving skills, friendship skills, 8th to 9th grade transition, and healthy relationship building.
Small Group Counseling
A variety of small groups are offered to students who may benefit from spending some extra time developing academic, social, or emotional skills along with their peers, and to students who are coping with similar life situations.
Individual Counseling
Some students can benefit from one-on-one counseling regarding academic, social, or emotional challenges.
