School Counseling
The Stoughton Area School District Comprehensive School Counseling Program is an integral part of the primary educational mission of the district. This program supports, facilitates and encourages classroom instruction and student achievement. Our counseling program is proactive and preventive in its focus. It assists students in acquiring and using life-long learning skills. More specifically, our school counseling program employs strategies to enhance academics, encourage self-awareness, foster interpersonal communication skills, provide career awareness, develop employment readiness, and impart life skills for all students.
The Stoughton Area School District Comprehensive School Counseling Program is based on the National Standards for School Counseling Programs and the Wisconsin Comprehensive School Counseling Model, which integrates academic, career, and personal /social development.
