How Can I Help Your Family?

School Counselors prepare students for academics and learning in personal and social development, in becoming a considerate multicultural citizen, and for their future life and career pathways.

Individual Counseling 

Individual counseling services are provided to students who may need additional support because of a crisis, a concern, or who simply who need to talk. Individual counseling services may be scheduled with parent permission.

Small Group Counseling

Small group counseling can help children learn valuable cooperation and friendship skills, teach empathy, offer anger management strategies, support coping with grief and loss, help adjustment to divorce, and many other life experiences.

Classroom Lessons

School-wide collaborative classroom presentations provide all students with developmentally appropriate life skills and guidance in being an achieving and thoughtful member of their school community.

Community Resources

Connect families to community resources that provide for physical needs: clothing, food, shoes, school supplies, discounted medical care and mental health services and more.

Mrs. Sharp's Mission Statement

I empower all students to achieve their dreams by teaching life skills that build resilience. These skills include how to cope with anxiety and grief, solve problems, identify and regulate emotions, communicate effectively, make friends, build confidence, and strengthen minds and bodies. I provide support for all students to feel safe, confident, and connected to community.
