Counseling/SEL
School counselors are an important resource and partner for our students, providing guidance and support in a variety of areas to help them be successful in their academic, post-secondary and personal lives.
Social/Emotional and Community Expectations Education
Our primary goal for our school is to foster a positive and inclusive culture where all students feel safe, respected and welcome. This work allows everyone in our community to have a sense of belonging where they can be their best and true self. In order to create this environment day to day, it takes ongoing respectful and caring interactions, understanding and compassionate support along with continuous direct and clear instruction. This learning comes in many forms throughout the year. To learn more about the topics we've addressed this year with students, please visit our Social & Emotional Learning Page.
Coping with Grief & Loss?
Your Counselor is here to help and support students and families during this difficult time. Several resources can be found here.
