• School Counseling Program

    School Counselor - Mrs. Rachel Dressin

    The mission of the elementary guidance program is to promote and facilitate academic success; career awareness; and personal - social development for all students.

    The guidance program is proactive and developmental in nature.  Counselors in elementary schools begin by teaching about feelings in Kindergarten and work up to other social skills such as communication and conflict - resolution.

    The objectives of the elementary guidance program are to assist students in developing:

    • Academic and study skills, such as: listening and paying attention, organization, relaxation techniques, and test-taking strategies.
    • An awareness of the world of work and how it relates to school.
    • Social Skills, such as effective communication, conflict-resolution, and manners.
    • Personal Skills, such as positive self-concept, successful coping behaviors, and decision-making.
