One of the services Battleground offers is small group sessions, which typically take place during lunch one day per week for several weeks. Groups have six to ten students participating. These groups focus on specific topics so that the participating students can be academically and socially successful at Battleground. New groups and topics are formed throughout the school year.
School counseling groups provide students with a safe environment in which to practice their skills while exploring their ideas, feelings and attitudes. However, small groups do not replace outside therapy services. If you feel your child would benefit from long-term therapy, we will gladly help you with locating outside agencies and therapists.
Please know that small groups are not mandatory and are offered as a means to help students with specific concerns. If you have any questions or would like to know more about the group, you can contact Ms. Eaddy.
