What do School Counselors do?
School counselors work with students, families, and teachers to help students grow and achieve academic, career, and social/emotional success. School Counselors do this through direct and indirect services facilitated through small groups, individual counseling, classroom lessons using school counseling core curriculum standards, and creating and advocating for student supports in classrooms. 
​
