Heritage
Elementary has two licensed professional counselors who are
specially trained in counseling interventions, theories, and
techniques. They work with students, teachers, administrators,
parents and community leaders to help students become
responsible and productive citizens. Heritage counselors promote
educational success, interpersonal skills, and self
understanding. Students are educated in decision making, problem
solving, goal setting, self-esteem, environmental concerns and
educational and occupational opportunities. The school counselor
helps create, organize and implement the comprehensive,
developmental school counseling program.
As an
integral part of the school counseling program's effort, the
Elementary School Counselor extends a hand to ALL students, not
just the problem or troubled child. The school counseling
program supports and complements the efforts of the classroom
teacher to facilitate your child's learning.
