Social/Emotional
Students have access to the school psychologist or social worker during the school day. The purpose of all counseling at the school is to address behaviors that impact school performance. A student's teacher, support staff, advisor, or parent may refer students to the school social worker or psychologist. They interact with students to address a range of concerns that have the potential to negatively impact their academic performance.
Some of these concerns could include, but are not limited to:
*emotional/social/behavioral issues
*drug and alcohol issues
*stress and anxiety
The school psychologist and social worker are available to parents/guardians to help access resources, fill out applications, and find services or resources in their community.
