My goal as the school counselor is to teach each student specific skills that will help them through the stages of development in order for them to function at their fullest potential. I will work to provide each student with a comprehensive school counseling program that supports their individuality and encourages their well-being and success. My CSCP focuses on the developmental areas of the academic, career, and personal and social aspects of life and education. This program is created for and supports all students through the implementation of a guidance curriculum, responsive services, individual planning, and system support.
My CSCP and the curriculum I use align with the ASCA National Standards, the ASCA Mindsets and Behaviors, and the Texas Model for Comprehensive School Counseling Programs.
Classroom Guidance Curriculum
During our classroom guidance lessons, we use the Core Essentials curriculum to help students build important character and life skills. Throughout the school year, students explore a variety of Big Ideas, or positive character traits, that encourage them to make wise choices, build healthy relationships, and become their best selves. Through engaging stories, interactive discussions, games, and hands-on activities, students discover how to apply these values at school, at home, and in their community. We invite you to continue the conversation at home by asking your child what they're learning and finding simple ways to practice these character traits together as a family. Working together helps these important lessons last!
