FAQ's
Where is the Round Meadow Counseling Office?
Located across the hall from the main office.
How does my child access counseling?
Students in grades 2 through 5 can see me by filling out a Let's Talk slip located in their classrooms. Teachers then submit the slips to me and I call the student to my office when I am next available.
Students in TK, Kindergarten and 1st grade are too young to access counseling themselves. These students must talk to their teachers first, and if necessary, the teacher will alert me to check in with the student. Most students in TK, K and 1st grade access the counseling program through classroom lessons and class/playground support and/or referral by parent or teacher.
How does the counselor handle confidentiality?
Confidentiality and your family's privacy are of utmost importance. What you or your student discuss with the counselor is private except in cases required by law or you give permission to share.
Will I be notified when my child visits the school counselor?
It depends! The counselor is neither obligated nor able to notify parents of every interaction with their child, but when a concern arises or if a student is frequently seeking out counseling, I will contact parents. Our partnership and open communication is always beneficial for the child.
If you would like an update on your child's counseling and/or wellbeing at school, please don't hesitate to reach out via email: mdundore@lvusd.org. I am more than happy to connect with you through email, by phone, or in person.
