As part of our Student Support Services program at Salem Elementary, we offer a variety of small group counseling groups throughout the year.
When:
Most groups occur during the lunch block but occasionally the teacher and counselor may workout a time other than lunch that does not take the student out of any academic instruction. Groups usually last about 6 weeks.
Who:
Student K-5 will be invited to participate in small group counseling. Lessons and topics are age-appropriate and target specific skills and strategies for that age group.
Topics:
The small groups that are offered at Salem will vary each year depending on need. Teachers, parents, counselors, and administration all work together to identify needs as the arise.
Possible/ frequent groups:
Academic Achievement Group
Organization Skills 101
GIRLS ROCK (self-esteem and self-worth)
SUPER boys (self-esteem and self-worth)
Social Skills group
Grief group
Attendance group
