Counselor's Corner

The middle school guidance program focuses on the rapidly changing needs of pre-and young adolescents. It is especially sensitive to the struggles of middle school students for identity and for balancing the demands for academic, career and social competence. The activities begun at the elementary level are continued. However, they are adjusted to fit the special needs of middle school students. In addition, school counselors work with students to begin to develop education/career plans that cover graduation requirements and beyond. The plan takes into account students' interest, abilities and educational and career goals.

School counselors at all levels help students to understand and deal with social, behavioral, and personal problems. These counselors emphasize preventive and developmental counseling to provide students with the life skills needed to deal with problems before they worsen and to enhance students’ personal, social, and academic growth. Counselors provide special services, including alcohol and drug prevention programs and conflict resolution classes. They also try to identify cases of domestic abuse and other family problems that can affect a student’s development.

We interact with students individually, in small groups, or as an entire class. They consult and collaborate with parents, teachers, school administrators, school psychologists, medical professionals, and social workers to develop and implement strategies to help students succeed.
