Lessons are taught about once a month in the classroom and focus on topics such as self-regulation, problem solving, goal setting, positive decision making, career readiness and more. Guardians will need to opt-in for their child to participate in monthly guidance lessons. The district opt-in form can be found here.
Students are met with individually depending on their current situation and need. Students are assisted with social, emotional, and academic problems. The goal is to help students to be successful in the classroom. Interventions are brief solution-focused interventions in which students receive help problem solving. Ongoing therapy is not provided.
Support is provided to students through small group lessons at teacher and parent request. Some examples of small group needs are: coping with feelings, social skills and classroom skills. Guardians will be asked to sign a permission form before their child can join small group lessons.
Teachers, staff and administrators collaborate to establish a positive, student-centered learning environment. They work together to create plans for student success academically, socially, and emotionally.
