Personal Social & Emotional Topics
School Counselors work with all students by implementing a school-wide counseling program that will support students in three main areas: academics, personal/social growth and career development. Although counselors are available for immediate personal/social emotional concerns, school counselors are NOT to be considered as a therapist. This being said, school counselors are able to provide families with resources outside of the school to address the need.
“Personal, social and emotional development involves helping children to develop a positive sense of themselves, and others; to form positive relationships and develop respect for others; to develop social skills and learn how to manage their feelings; to understand appropriate behavior in groups; and to have confidence in their own abilities. “
