School Counselors work in partnership with the school staff, parents, and the community to help students have a more positive and successful experience throughout their education/ in school. The primary focus of the student support and counseling services at the elementary school level is prevention. School Counselors work with ALL students. Our goal is to help empower students with self-knowledge, positive interpersonal skills, and coping strategies for the issues that can arise or exist among our students here at Edna Rowe Elementary.
The services that I provide include, but are not limited to:
