Each child is assigned a certified school counselor who is there to support the whole child emotionally, socially and academically throughout their three years of middle school.  Counselors fill multiple roles for parents, students and staff, as sources of information, resolvers of conflicts, integral team members and as the primary point of contact between home and school.  The Counselors exemplify the school's commitment to maintaining a vital and human connection between adults and young adolescents. They guide, counsel, re-direct and set limits for behavior, while helping students to channel their energies in productive and positive directions.

The Counselors understand that each year of middle school is unique, and that the changes from sixth to seventh to eighth grade are profound and must guide the nature of adult interactions with students.  Counselors meet with students on an ongoing basis, individually, in small groups, and though classroom visits. Relevant topics such as transitioning to middle school, scheduling, stress management, being a good digital citizen and appropriate technology use, bullying, career planning and interest exploration are discussed.
