Students in Fifth grade meet for school counselor lessons during homeroom time, approximately every 3 weeks. For our first lesson, students are introduced to the role of the counselor at school. We discuss ways to make an appointment if a student needs support for themselves or for a friend. We discussed how a student's role at school is to be a successful student as well a treat others with kindness. Students learn about the TIPS reporting tool on Sycamore and reasons a student may need to make a report to help a friend or classmate in trouble.
