The mission of Poway Unified School District’s Elementary School Counseling program is to provide comprehensive services that support the academic, career, and social-emotional development of all students. Together with other educators, families, and community members we work to support our school district’s mission of college and career readiness for all students.
The vision of Poway Unified School District’s Elementary School Counseling program is for all students to feel connected, safe, and included at school. As a result of the school counseling program, students will feel significant, with a sense of purpose and belonging. School counselors will foster these student mindsets by teaching empathy, skills for learning, emotion management, and problem solving skills. Every student will acquire the necessary habits of mind and the behaviors and attitudes essential for their future success as healthy, responsible, competent, and productive citizens.
