Classroom GuidancE

The guidance curriculum is designed to systematically provide lessons to students that facilitate growth, development, and transferrable skills in the areas of educational, career, personal, and social development. There is a need for students to become advanced critical thinkers, efficient problem solvers, and demonstrate appropriate behavior and disposition.

• Academic Achievement

• Personal/Social Growth

• Career Exploration

Responsive Services

The counselor will respond to the needs of students and offer support in times of need. Responsive services can have the three levels of school counselor response, those of prevention, remediation, and crisis.

Individual Counseling

• Personal, social, and academic counseling are available during the school day. It should be noted that individual counseling is not therapeutic in nature, as it is beyond the role of the school counselor to conduct in-depth, on-going individual sessions. School counseling is short-term. When long-term counseling is required, outside service referrals will be provided. Sessions are kept confidential except when students disclose that they are being hurt, are hurting someone else, or want to hurt themselves.

Group Counseling

• Counselors receive referrals from parents, teachers, and administrators. These groups may include, but are not limited to the following:

· Peer Relations

· Changing Families

· Social Skills

· Anger Management

· Self-Esteem

· Study/Organization Skills
