A counselor is an integral part to the total educational program. I am an elementary school counselor. Elementary school is a time when students are developing character values, decision making skills, and life skills.
A counselor is someone students can come to when they need help.
A counselor is a listener.
A counselor helps students learn to solve their own problems. I want to help students learn as much as they can during the school day and help each and every child feel safe at school.
A counselor teaches children to be proactive.
A counselor helps with things that happen outside of school such as a pet dying or a divorce in the family. A counselor helps children develop good habits that will help them live happy, productive lives, not only now, but in the future.
