The School Guidance Counselor works with all students to assist with personal/social, academic, and interests in career goals; by using whole class lessons, group work focusing on specific concerns and individual counseling sessions. Students are referred to the Guidance Office by their teachers, a staff member, parents, and self-referral. If parents have any concerns regarding their children, they should feel free to call the Guidance Office between 8:30 am and 3:00 pm. (EES Student Handbook, 2010)
Most sessions between students and the School Counselor are kept confidential. If there is ever a time when Mrs. Mcdonough or Mrs. Stanley-Berting believes a student may be in danger or could potentially put others in danger there are required as a New Hampshire mandated reporter, to break confidentiality and report to the appropriate authorities. Student safety is the priority.
