The Advisor's Role
The Advisor's Role
Support students in their daily challenges
The advisor is the reference teacher when you need someone to help you with the daily challenges that you find in Middle School. Besides group sessions, advisors will have short individual check-ins with students throughout the year seeking to provide personalized guidance. The advisor will also help students to develop self-advocacy and self-confidence.
Build Student-to-Student Affiliation
